Q4:
By using the properties of definite integrals, evaluate the integrals in Exercises 1 to 19.
4. $\int_{0}^{\frac{\pi}{2}} \frac{\cos^5 x dx}{\sin^5 x + \cos^5 x}$
Solution :
Given Variables & Initial Setup
Let the given integral be denoted by $I$:
$I = \int_{0}^{\frac{\pi}{2}} \frac{\cos^5 x}{\sin^5 x + \cos^5 x} \, dx$ — (Equation 1)
Step 1: Applying the Definite Integral Property
We utilize the property of definite integrals, specifically King's Property: $\int_{a}^{b} f(x) \, dx = \int_{a}^{b} f(a + b - x) \, dx$. [Per Property of Definite Integrals, P4]
Here, $a = 0$ and $b = \frac{\pi}{2}$. Therefore, we replace $x$ with $(\frac{\pi}{2} - x)$:
$I = \int_{0}^{\frac{\pi}{2}} \frac{\cos^5 (\frac{\pi}{2} - x)}{\sin^5 (\frac{\pi}{2} - x) + \cos^5 (\frac{\pi}{2} - x)} \, dx$
Step 2: Trigonometric Reduction
Using the co-function identities $\cos(\frac{\pi}{2} - x) = \sin x$ and $\sin(\frac{\pi}{2} - x) = \cos x$:
$I = \int_{0}^{\frac{\pi}{2}} \frac{\sin^5 x}{\cos^5 x + \sin^5 x} \, dx$ — (Equation 2)
Step 3: Summation of Equations
Adding Equation 1 and Equation 2:
$I + I = \int_{0}^{\frac{\pi}{2}} \frac{\cos^5 x}{\sin^5 x + \cos^5 x} \, dx + \int_{0}^{\frac{\pi}{2}} \frac{\sin^5 x}{\sin^5 x + \cos^5 x} \, dx$
$2I = \int_{0}^{\frac{\pi}{2}} \frac{\cos^5 x + \sin^5 x}{\sin^5 x + \cos^5 x} \, dx$
Step 4: Simplification and Evaluation
The integrand simplifies to $1$:
$2I = \int_{0}^{\frac{\pi}{2}} 1 \, dx$
$2I = [x]_{0}^{\frac{\pi}{2}}$ [By the Fundamental Theorem of Calculus]
$2I = \frac{\pi}{2} - 0$
$2I = \frac{\pi}{2}$
Step 5: Solving for I
Dividing both sides by 2:
$I = \frac{\pi}{4}$
Visual Representation of the Integrand
Final Solution: I = \frac{\pi}{4}
