If I n = ∫ tan n x d x , and I 0 + I 1 + 2 I 2 + 2 I 3 + 2 I 4 + I 5 + I 6 = ∑ K = 1 n tan K x K…

If In=tannxdx, and I0+I1+2I2+2I3+2I4+I5+I6=K=1ntanKxK, then n=
  1. 6
  2. 5
  3. 4
  4. 3

Solution

Reduction formulae for In=tannxdx=tann-1xn-1-In-2

i.e. In+In-2=tann-1xn-1

Given I0+I1+2I2+2I3+2I4+I5+I6=K=1ntanKxK

Now, I0+I1+2I2+2I3+2I4+I5+I6=I2+I0+I3+I1+I4+I2+I5+I3+I6+I4

=tanx1+tan2x2+tan3x3+tan4x4+tan5x5

=K=15tanKxK

Hence, n=5
