If $\int_0^\pi \frac{d x}{1+2 \sin ^2 x}=k$, then greatest integer less than or equal to $k$ is

If $\int_0^\pi \frac{d x}{1+2 \sin ^2 x}=k$, then greatest integer less than or equal to $k$ is
  1. 2
  2. 0
  3. 1
  4. -1

Solution

$\begin{aligned} & \text { } \int_0^\pi \frac{1}{1+2 \sin ^2 x} d x=k \\ & 2 \int_0^{\pi / 2} \frac{1}{1+2 \sin ^2 x} d x \\ & \quad\left[\because \frac{1}{1+2 \sin ^2 x} \text { is an even function }\right] \\ & 2 \int_0^{\pi / 2} \frac{\sec ^2 x}{1+\tan ^2 x+2 \tan ^2 x} d x \\ & 2 \int_0^{\pi / 2} \frac{\sec ^2 x}{1+3 \tan ^2 x} d x \\ & \text { Let } \tan x=t \\ & \Rightarrow \sec x d x=d t \\ & \text { When } x \rightarrow 0, t \rightarrow 0\end{aligned}$ and when $x \rightarrow \pi / 2, t \rightarrow \infty$ $ \begin{aligned} & 2 \int_0^\pi \frac{1}{1+3 t^2} d t \\ \Rightarrow & \frac{2}{\sqrt{3}}\left[\tan ^{-1} t \sqrt{3}\right]_0^{\infty} \\ \Rightarrow & \frac{2}{\sqrt{3}}\left(\frac{\pi}{2}-0\right) \\ \Rightarrow & \frac{\pi}{\sqrt{3}}=\left[\frac{\pi}{\sqrt{3}}\right]=\left[\frac{3.14}{1.73}\right]=1 \end{aligned} $
