Fun side note : There's a nice and quick geometric way to see what A and B are in the equation (sin x + cos x) = A cos (x - B). Consider a square of side 1 unit and a line outside the square. The projection of the adjacent sides of the square on the line is (sin x + cos x) , which is also equal to the projection of the diagonal of the square on the line. The maximum value of the projection is clearly equal to the length of the diagonal or sqrt2 and this occurs when the angle x is equal to pi/4( since the diagonal is parallel to the line in that case ). Therefore A=sqrt2, B = pi/4
From how he said "a Calc 2 student would try..." I kept thinking the trig substitution was going to hit a wall and he'd have to use Feynman's technique
I didn't really find a way to solve this integral without using advance techniques, and you've just showed you're solution like a champ. I'm shookt. Here's a quick sub for ya!
Literally man, you made this question super tough. Just apply ∫f(x)=∫f(a+b-x) for limits a to b. Apply formula of tan(A-B) for A=π/4 and B=0. Add both equations and apply ln(a)+ln(b)=ln(ab). Only ln2 will left. Answer would come (π/8)ln2. Seriously this is a question from one of the easiest books of Indian Mathematics, NCERT.
Shorter method : We know integral fx from a to b is same as integral f(a+b-x) from a to b once we got I=ln(1+Tanx) I=ln(1+(tan(45-x)) .. expand tan(a-b)=(tana-tanb)/1+tanAtanB =Ln(1+(1-tanx)/1+Tanx) =Ln(2/1+Tanx) I=ln(2)-I I=1/2ln(2) Now substitute limits I= (1/2)ln(2)*(π/4-0) Done
A very elegant and analytic approach! However, I prefer Feynman's trick in this case. Anyway: I love your condensed and concise way to present the solution.
i’m loving your videos! super well put together! great content, great editing, and you explain things really well, you’ve got yourself a new subscriber
wonderful explanation bruh! I have seen lot of your math videos ,It actually helped a lot. :) I am in my second semester currently , you are far better than my math prof. THANKS A LOT KEEP IT UP
It will be much more easier Put I =lim 0 to π/4 ln (1+tan theta) = lim 0 to π/4 ln{1 + tan (π/4- theta) } Next put the formula of tan (π/4-theta) Then I = ln (2/(1+ tan theta)) 2I = lim 0 to π/4 (ln 2) And thus I = ln 2 by π/8
Thanks for making and sharing another phenomenal video! I was curious: did you know that you needed to end up with the two equal and opposite integrals near the end of the problem, or was that something you stumbled onto or found in a solution writeup somewhere? Either way I think that's amazing; I was just curious about the thought process behind it and how this could help an overall approach to integrals like this. Thanks!
Thanks for explaining the sin x + cos x identity! This is my new favorite formula now... why didn't they teach it in schools? (no I am not a JEE aspirant)
This problem was a regular problem in our textbook. Another easier way would be just to use proven property of a definite integral. But got a new way to solve. Thanks! This was interesting ☺️
Oh why couldn’t this have realised earlier when I had to do this question for my Australian hsc maths ext2 assignment. Just kidding great video, alternate format which I used however was to use the law that you used at the end of the video when you have the integral of ln(tan(theta)-Pi/4), where you can use the tan compound angle formula and do some simplifying in order to get 2x your original integral as equal to pixln(2)/4, giving the same answer as you showed here
I ran into a question like this yesterday, except it also involved partial fraction decomp, and when the terms started canceling out like that I though I did something wrong. And went about it a little different. Now I’m gunna have to go back and look to see if I would have gotten the same answer.
Another method: when we are at ln(1+tan(a)) [let a = theta], we can use king's rule to get ln(1+tan(pi/4 - a)). Next, we can use the tan(a-b) identity, and it will turn out to be ln(2/1+tan(a)). Next, we use the quotient property of ln to separate the integrals and turns out we get the original integral. therefore, assuming the original integral to be I, we get 2I = pi/4*ln2, which evaluates to pi/8*ln2.
Well, it literally looks really similar to one of the questions in HKDSE 2020 Maths Exam (The HKDSE examination is the university entrance examination for all high school students in Hong Kong)
there is a much simpler way to solve it. When you have the ln(tan(theta)+1)) just use king property to get ln(tan(pi/4-theta)+1) and it just simplify like butter. You can also try x = (1-t)/(1+t) it work good with log.
There also you can do another method by not opening tan into sin and cos and only solve in tan by identity tan a + tanb. Then seperating them and put the limits
Some time ago i saw integral Int(x/sqrt(e^{x}+(x+2)^2),x) Try to calculate it, and it is not nonelementary as you may think (I can do it , my way involves tricks like adding zero , multiplying by one and then doing obvious substitution) CAS programs like Mathematica or Maple are unable to calculate integral i gave I prefer u=(1-x)/(1+x) substitution for your integral
After substituting x=tan(theta), Substitute theta=pi/4-T. To rewrite the integral then use the tan(A-B) identity then use the log properties to see the magic happen you would right away get your answere

Equation solving like this makes me love maths so so much
me too!!
Ah this reminds me of my innocent days when I though all of math was this elegant.
2:42 In JEE questions, to solve sinx + cosx we usually divide and multiply by √2 to get √2 sin(x+π/4) (common in SHM) it's same but easier.
thats exactly what i was thinking
That trick is widely used in Suneung too

Fantastic explanation!
I started off with by parts and understood that its gonna take me nowhere

It will be much more easier
Put I =lim 0 to π/4 ln (1+tan theta)
= lim 0 to π/4 ln{1 + tan (π/4- theta) }
Next put the formula of tan (π/4-theta)
Then I = ln (2/(1+ tan theta))
2I = lim 0 to π/4 (ln 2)
And thus I = ln 2 by π/8
kings rule?
Yep I did exactly the same when I first saw this problem
A simpler way to do it is to use the substitution x=1-t/1+t

Didn't learn that specific identity - but we did learn the method (harmonic form)

Maths is designed that way
You could have just used the identity that integral from A to B of f(x)dx = integral from A to B of f(A+B-x)dx .
Also works!
