Solution
Consider ∫0sin2xsin−1(t)dt+∫0cos2xcos−1(t)dt Let I=f(x) after integrating and putting the limits. f′(x)=sin−1sin2x(2sinxcosx)−0+cos−1cos2x(−2cosxsinx)−0∴f′(x)=0⇒f(x)=C (constant) Now, we find f(x) at x=4π∴I∴f(x)=4π∴ Required integration =4π=∫01/2sin−1tdt+∫01/2cos−1tdt=∫01/2(sin−1t+cos−1t)dt=∫01/22πdt=4π=C
