- We are given
and we need the minimum value of for .
- First, study the upper limit:
Since has the same sign as , we get
- if , then , so ,
- if , then , so ,
- if , then .
Hence,
So the upper limit of integration is always nonnegative.
- Now examine the integrand:
For the integral to be defined over , note that on this interval.
For :
- always,
- .
Therefore,
- Since the integrand is strictly positive on for every , we have
and of course
Thus,
Equality occurs when the upper limit is , i.e. when
This happens only at
Then
- Therefore, the minimum value of is
