    \[\int_{0}^{\infty }{\frac{dx}{{{\left( x+\sqrt{{{x}^{2}}+1} \right)}^{3}}}}=\]                                          [EAMCET 1992]

    A)                 \[\frac{3}{8}\]   

    B)                 \[\frac{1}{8}\]

    C)                 \[-\frac{3}{8}\] 

    D)                 None of these

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

                       Putting \[x=\tan \theta \], we get \[\int_{0}^{\infty }{\frac{dx}{{{\left( x+\sqrt{{{x}^{2}}+1} \right)}^{3}}}}\]                    \[=\int_{0}^{\pi /2}{\frac{{{\sec }^{2}}\theta \,d\theta }{{{(\tan \theta +\sec \theta )}^{3}}}}=\int_{0}^{\pi /2}{\frac{\cos \theta }{{{(1+\sin \theta )}^{3}}}d\theta }\]                                 \[=\left[ -\frac{1}{2{{(1+\sin \theta )}^{2}}} \right]_{0}^{\pi /2}=-\frac{1}{8}+\frac{1}{2}=\frac{3}{8}\].
