differentiate wrt b

 

\frac{dI}{db}=\int_{\frac{-\pi}{2}}^{\frac{\pi}{2}}\frac{dx}{1+bsinx}

 

again by property of definite integral.

 

\frac{dI}{db}=\int_{\frac{-\pi}{2}}^{\frac{\pi}{2}}\frac{dx}{1-bsinx}

 

adding both,

 

\frac{dI}{db}=\int_{\frac{-\pi}{2}}^{\frac{\pi}{2}}\frac{dx}{(1-b^2sin^2x)}

 

\frac{dI}{db}=\int_{\frac{-\pi}{2}}^{\frac{\pi}{2}}\frac{sec^2x\ dx}{(1+tan^2x(1-b^2))}

 

put tanx = t

 

\frac{dI}{db}=\frac{tan^{-1}(t\sqrt{1-b^2)}}{\sqrt{1-b^2}}   limit from -infty to infty

 

\frac{dI}{db}=\frac{\pi}{\sqrt{(1-b^2)}}

 

Integrating,

 

I=\pi sin^{-1}b+C

 

now see the original equation, at b = 0, I = 0,

 

so,  C = 0

 

I=\pi sin^{-1}b

 

 

 


all's well that end's well, but if it dosen't, then it is not the end . . .
