$\int_0^{\pi / 4} \sqrt{1-\sin 2 x} d x=$

$\int_0^{\pi / 4} \sqrt{1-\sin 2 x} d x=$
  1. $\sqrt{2}+1$
  2. $1+2 \sqrt{2}$
  3. $\sqrt{2}-1$
  4. $2 \sqrt{2}-1$

Solution

$\begin{aligned} & \int_0^{\pi / 4} \sqrt{1-\sin 2 x} \mathrm{~d} x=\int_0^{\pi / 4} \sqrt{\cos ^2 x+\sin ^2 x-2 \sin x \cdot \cos x} \mathrm{~d} x \\ & =\int_0^{\pi / 4} \sqrt{(\cos x-\sin x)^2} \mathrm{~d} x=\int_0^{\pi / 4}|\cos x-\sin x| \mathrm{d} x \\ & =\int_0^{\pi / 4}(\cos x-\sin x) \mathrm{d} x=[\sin x+\cos x]_0^{\pi / 4} \\ & =\left(\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}+\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}\right)-(0+1)=\sqrt{2}-1\end{aligned}$
