TopicIntegration by Substitution

6
  1. Use the substitution \(x = 2 \tan \theta\) to show that $$\int _ { 0 } ^ { 2 } \frac { 8 } { \left( 4 + x ^ { 2 } \right) ^ { 2 } } \mathrm {~d} x = \int _ { 0 } ^ { \frac { 1 } { 4 } \pi } \cos ^ { 2 } \theta \mathrm {~d} \theta$$
  2. Hence find the exact value of $$\int _ { 0 } ^ { 2 } \frac { 8 } { \left( 4 + x ^ { 2 } \right) ^ { 2 } } \mathrm {~d} x$$
