  • question_answer
    The area between the curve \[y={{\sin }^{2}}x,\] \[x-\]axis and the ordinates \[x=0\] and \[x=\frac{\pi }{2}\] is                    [RPET 1996]

    A)            \[\frac{\pi }{2}\]                 

    B)            \[\frac{\pi }{4}\]

    C)            \[\frac{\pi }{8}\]                 

    D)            \[\pi \]

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

               Required area \[A=\int_{0}^{\pi /2}{{{\sin }^{2}}x.\,dx}=\int_{0}^{\pi /2}{\left( \frac{1-\cos 2x}{2} \right)}\,dxa\]                                                                       \[=\frac{1}{2}[x]_{0}^{\pi /2}-\frac{1}{4}[\sin 2x]_{0}^{\pi /2}=\frac{\pi }{4}\].
