    Let \[f(x)=\int{\frac{{{x}^{2}}dx}{(1+{{x}^{2}})(1+\sqrt{1+{{x}^{2}}})}}\]and \[f(0)=0,\] then \[f(1)\] is

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

    B) \[\log \,(\sqrt{2}+1)-\frac{\pi }{4}\]

    C) \[\log \,(\sqrt{2}+1)+\frac{\pi }{4}\]

    D) None of these

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

    We have, \[f(x)=\int{\frac{{{x}^{2}}}{(1+{{x}^{2}})(1+\sqrt{1+{{x}^{2}}})}dx}\]
    \[\Rightarrow \]   \[f(x)=\int{\frac{{{x}^{2}}(\sqrt{1+{{x}^{2}}}-1)}{(1+{{x}^{2}})(1+{{x}^{2}}-1)}dx}\]
    \[\Rightarrow \]   \[f(x)=\int{\frac{\sqrt{1+{{x}^{2}}}}{1+{{x}^{2}}}dx-\int{\frac{1}{1+{{x}^{2}}}}dx}\]
    \[\Rightarrow \]   \[f(x)=\int{\frac{1}{\sqrt{1+{{x}^{2}}}}dx-\int{\frac{1}{1+{{x}^{2}}}dx}}\]
    \[\Rightarrow \]   \[f(x)=\log (x+\sqrt{1+{{x}^{2}})}-{{\tan }^{-1}}x+C\]
    \[\Rightarrow \]   \[f(0)=0=C\]
    \[\therefore \]      \[f(x)=\log \,(x+\sqrt{1+{{x}^{2}}})-{{\tan }^{-1}}x\]
    \[\Rightarrow \]   \[f(1)=\log \,(1+\sqrt{2})-{{\tan }^{-1}}1\]
                \[f(1)=\log \,(\sqrt{2}+1)-\frac{\pi }{4}\]
