    \[\int_{0}^{1.5}{[{{x}^{2}}]\,dx}\], where \[[\,\,.\,\,]\]denotes the greatest integer function, equals           [IIT 1988; DCE 2000, 01]

    A)                 \[2+\sqrt{2}\]   

    B)                 \[2-\sqrt{2}\]

    C)                 \[-2+\sqrt{2}\] 

    D)                 \[-2-\sqrt{2}\]

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

    \[\int_{0}^{1.5}{[{{x}^{2}}]dx=\int_{0}^{1}{[{{x}^{2}}]dx+\int_{1}^{\sqrt{2}}{[{{x}^{2}}]dx+\int_{\sqrt{2}}^{1.5}{[{{x}^{2}}]dx}}}}\]                                 \[=0+\int_{1}^{\sqrt{2}}{1dx+\int_{\sqrt{2}}^{1.5}{2dx=\sqrt{2}-1+3-2\sqrt{2}=2-\sqrt{2}}}\].
