The Correct Option is A

Solution and Explanation

Let $f\left(x\right) =\frac{e^{x} sec^{2}\,x}{e^{2x}-1}$ $\therefore f \left(-x\right)=\frac{e^{-x} sec^{2}\left(-x\right)}{e^{-2x}-1}=\frac{\frac{1}{e^{x}}}{\frac{1}{e^{2x}}-1}sec^{2}\, x$ $=\frac{e^{2} x}{e^{x}\left(1-e^{2x}\right)} sec^{2}\,x=-\frac{e^{x}}{e^{2x}-1}sec^{2}\, x=f \left(x\right)$ $\therefore$ f i s an odd function $\therefore \int\limits_{-\pi 4}^{\pi 4}\frac{e^{x}sec^{2}\,x}{e^{2x}-1} dx=0$

Integral

The representation of the area of a region under a curve is called to be as integral. The actual value of an integral can be acquired (approximately) by drawing rectangles.

  • The definite integral of a function can be shown as the area of the region bounded by its graph of the given function between two points in the line.
  • The area of a region is found by splitting it into thin vertical rectangles and applying the lower and the upper limits, the area of the region is summarized.
  • An integral of a function over an interval on which the integral is described.

Also, F(x) is known to be a Newton-Leibnitz integral or antiderivative or primitive of a function f(x) on an interval I.

F'(x) = f(x)

For every value of x = I.

Types of Integrals:

Integral calculus helps to resolve two major types of problems:

  1. The problem of getting a function if its derivative is given.
  2. The problem of getting the area bounded by the graph of a function under given situations.
