Question
Question: \(\int _ { 0 } ^ { \pi } \frac { d x } { 1 - 2 a \cos x + a ^ { 2 } }\)=...
∫0π1−2acosx+a2dx=
A
2(1−a2)π
B
π(1−a2)
C
1−a2π
D
None of these
Answer
1−a2π
Explanation
Solution
∫0π(1+a2)(cos22x+sin22x)−2d(cos22x−sin22x)dx
=∫0π(1−a)2cos22x+(1+a)2sin22xdx
=(1+a)22∫0∞{(1−a)/(1+a)}2+t2dt; {where t=tan2x}
=(1+a)22(1−a)(1+a)[tan−1(1−a1+a⋅t)]0∞
=(1−a2)2[tan−1∞−tan−10]=1−a2π.
