    \[\int_{0}^{\pi /4}{{}}\sec x\log (\sec x+\tan x)\,dx=\]

    A)                 \[\frac{1}{2}{{[\log (1+\sqrt{2})]}^{2}}\]

    B)                 \[{{[\log (1+\sqrt{2})]}^{2}}\]

    C)                 \[\frac{1}{2}{{[\log (\sqrt{2}-1)]}^{2}}\]

    D)                 \[\frac{1}{2}{{[\log (\sqrt{2}-1)]}^{2}}\]

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

               \[I=\int_{0}^{\pi /4}{\sec x\log (\sec x+\tan x)dx}\]            Put \[\log (\sec x+\tan x)=t\Rightarrow \sec x\,dx=dt\]                                 \[\Rightarrow I=\int_{0}^{\log (\sqrt{2}+1)}{t\,dt=\left[ \frac{{{t}^{2}}}{2} \right]}_{0}^{\log (\sqrt{2}+1)}=\frac{{{[\log (\sqrt{2}+1)]}^{2}}}{2}\].
