Correct answer: C
Let
I=∫−π/2π/2(1+ex)(sin6x+cos6x)dx.
We will use the standard symmetry property on [−a,a]:
∫−aaf(x)dx=∫−aaf(−x)dx,
so that
2I=∫−π/2π/2(f(x)+f(−x))dx,
where
f(x)=(1+ex)(sin6x+cos6x)1.
Compute f(−x).
Using
e−x=ex1,sin(−x)=−sinx,cos(−x)=cosx,
and since powers are even,
sin6(−x)+cos6(−x)=sin6x+cos6x.
Therefore,
Now,
1+e−x1=1+exex.
So,
f(−x)=(1+ex)(sin6x+cos6x)ex.
Add f(x) and f(−x):
f(x)+f(−x)=(1+ex)(sin6x+cos6x)1+(1+ex)(sin6x+cos6x)ex.
Hence,
f(x)+f(−x)=(1+ex)(sin6x+cos6x)1+ex=sin6x+cos6x1.
Thus,
2I=∫−π/2π/2sin6x+cos6xdx.
So,
I=21∫−π/2π/2sin6x+cos6xdx.
Simplify sin6x+cos6x.
Use
a3+b3=(a+b)3−3ab(a+b).
Taking a=sin2x, b=cos2x,
sin6x+cos6x=(sin2x)3+(cos2x)3.
Since
sin2x+cos2x=1,
we get
sin6x+cos6x=1−3sin2xcos2x.
Also,
sin2xcos2x=41sin22x.
Therefore,
So,
2I=∫−π/2π/21−43sin22xdx.
Use symmetry again.
The integrand is even, so
2I=2∫0π/21−43sin22xdx.
Hence,
I=∫0π/21−43sin22xdx.
Now substitute
t=2x⇒dt=2dx,dx=2dt.
As x:0→π/2, we have t:0→π.
Thus,
I=21∫0π1−43sin2tdt.
Using symmetry about π/2,
∫0π1−43sin2tdt=2∫0π/21−43sin2tdt.
Therefore,
I=∫0π/21−43sin2tdt.
Use the standard result
∫0π/21−msin2θdθ=21−mπ,(m<1).
Here m=43. So,
I=21−3/4π=21/4π=2⋅1/2π=π.
