The smallest interval $[a, b]$ such that $\int\limits_0^1 \frac{1}{\sqrt{1+x^4}} d x \in[a, b]$ is given by |
$[1 / \sqrt{2}, 1]$ $[0,1]$ $[1 / 2,1]$ $[3 / 4,1]$ |
$[1 / \sqrt{2}, 1]$ |
Let $I=\int\limits_0^1 \frac{1}{\sqrt{1+x^4}} d x$ We have, $0 \leq x \leq 1 \Rightarrow 0 \leq x^4 \leq 1 \Rightarrow 1 \leq 1+x^4 \leq 2$ $\Rightarrow 1 \leq \sqrt{1+x^4} \leq \sqrt{2}$ $\Rightarrow \frac{1}{\sqrt{2}} \leq \frac{1}{\sqrt{1+x^4}} \leq 1$ $\Rightarrow \frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}(1-0) \leq \int\limits_0^1 \frac{1}{\sqrt{1+x^4}} d x \leq 1(1-0)$ $\Rightarrow \frac{1}{\sqrt{2}} \leq I \leq 1 \Rightarrow I \in\left[\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}, 1\right]$ |
