∫₋ₐa f(x) dx = ∫₀a [f(x) + f(-x)] dxCore Logic
Let I = ∫-π/6π/6 π+4x¹¹1- (|x|+π/6)dx. The denominator 1 - (|x| + π/6) is an even function. The numerator can be split into an even part (π) and an odd part (4x¹¹).
∫₋ₐa 4x¹¹1- (|x|+π/6) dx = 0 (Since integrand is odd)Step 1: Simplify to Even Integral
We are left with the even part:
I = ∫-π/6π/6 (π)/(1 - (|x| + π/6)) dxUsing even function property ∫₋ₐa f(x) dx = 2 ∫₀a f(x) dx:
I = 2π ∫₀π/6 (1)/(1 - (x + π/6)) dxStep 2: Substitution
Let t = x + (π)/(6) ⇒ dt = dx. Limits: when x = 0 ⇒ t = π/6, when x = π/6 ⇒ t = π/3.
I = 2π ∫π/6π/3 (dt)/(1 - t)Step 3: Solve the Integral
Rationalize the denominator:
I = 2π ∫π/6π/3 (1 + t)/((1 - t)(1 + t)) dt I = 2π ∫π/6π/3 (1 + t)/( ² t) dt I = 2π ∫π/6π/3 ( ² t + t t) dtIntegrate directly:
I = 2π [ t + t ]π/6π/3Evaluate limits: Upper limit (π/3): (π/3) + (π/3) = √(3) + 2 Lower limit (π/6): (π/6) + (π/6) = 1√(3) + 2√(3) = 3√(3) = √(3)
I = 2π [(√(3) + 2) - √(3)] = 2π (2) = 4πPattern Recognition
Symmetric limits [-a, a] instantly demand testing for odd/even parity. Any mixed polynomial like c + k xodd over an even denominator guarantees the odd power term strictly vanishes, halving calculation time.
