    \[\int\limits_{0}^{\pi /4}{\log \,(1+\tan x)d\,x=}\]

    A)  \[\frac{\pi }{8}{{\log }_{e}}2\]                   

    B)  \[\frac{\pi }{4}{{\log }_{2}}e\]

    C)  \[\frac{\pi }{4}{{\log }_{e}}2\]                   

    D)  \[\frac{\pi }{4}{{\log }_{e}}\left( \frac{1}{2} \right)\]

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

    Let \[I=\int_{0}^{\pi /4}{\log \,\,\left[ 1+\tan \left( \frac{\pi }{4}-x \right) \right]}\,dx\]  ... (i)                 \[\Rightarrow \]               \[I=\int_{0}^{\pi /4}{\log \left[ 1+\tan \left( \frac{\pi }{4}-x \right) \right]\,\,dx}\]                                 \[\left[ \because \,\int_{0}^{a}{f(x)\,dx=\int_{0}^{a}{f(a-x)\,dx}} \right]\]                                 \[=\int_{0}^{\pi /4}{\log \left[ 1+\frac{1-\tan x}{1+\tan x} \right]dx}\]                                 \[=\int_{0}^{\pi /4}{\log \left[ 1+\frac{2}{1+\tan x} \right]dx}\]                                 \[=\int_{0}^{\pi /4}{\log \,2\,dx-\int_{0}^{\pi /4}{\log \,(1+\tan x)\,dx}}\]                 \[\Rightarrow \]               \[I=\log \,2\,[x]_{0}^{\pi /4}-I\] [from equation (i)]                 \[\Rightarrow \,\,\,\,2I=\frac{\pi }{4}{{\log }_{e}}2\]                 \[\Rightarrow \,\,\,I=\frac{\pi }{8}\,{{\log }_{e}}2\]
