Evaluate the following: 
OR
Evaluate
as the limit of a sum.
Let ![]()
Using property ![]()
![]()
![]()
Add (i) and (ii)
![]()
![]()
![]()
![]()
We know that cos 2x = 1 – 2sin2x
![]()
![]()
Divide by cos2x in numerator and denominator

![]()
We know that 1 + tan2x = sec2x
![]()
![]()
Let tan x = t
The limits will also change
When ![]()
![]()
and
![]()
![]()
![]()
So, the limits will be -1 to 1
Now,
![]()
⇒ sec2x dx = dt
Hence
![]()
![]()
![]()
We know that ![]()

![]()
![]()
![]()
![]()
Hence ![]()
OR
Here f(x) = 3x2 – 2x + 4
Expressing integral as limit of sum
![]()
Where ![]()
![]()
![]()
![]()
Let us find f (a + rh)
⇒ f(a + rh) = 3(a + rh)2 – 2(a + rh) + 4
⇒ f(a + rh) = 3(a2 + 2arh + r2h2) – 2a – 2rh + 4
⇒ f(a + rh) = 3a2 + 6arh + 3r2h2 – 2a – 2rh + 4
Here a = -2 and b = 2
b – a = 2 – (-2) = 4 and ![]()
![]()
![]()
![]()
Put this value of f(a + rh) in (i)
![]()
![]()
Since
,

![]()
And,

![]()
![]()
![]()
![]()
![]()
![]()
![]()
![]()
Put the limit
![]()
As ![]()
