To determine
To evaluate:
The integral ∫04116+t2 dt.
Answer
∫04116+t2 dt= π16.
Explanation
Given:
∫04116+t2 dt
Formulae used: The integral of the expression ∫bc1a2+x2 dt=1a[tan−1(ca)−tan−1(ba)]
Consider f(x)=116+t2
Hence, use the formulae of the integral ∫bc1a2+x2 dt=1a[tan−1(ca)−tan−1(ba)]
f(x)=116+t2=1(4)2+t2
Now according to the given expression, the integral of the function from t=0 to t=4.
∫04116+t2 dt=∫041(4)2+t2 dt=14tan−1(t4)|04=14[tan−1(1)−tan−1(0)]=π16
Conclusion: Hence the integral of the expression ∫04116+t2 dt is π16.
