Property: f(a+b-x)

Rarely Tested

$$\int_a^b f(x) \, dx = \int_a^b f(a + b - x) \, dx$$
Useful for simplifying symmetric integrands.
Question 1

If $$\int_0^{\pi/2}\frac{x\sin x\cos x}{\sin^4x+\cos^4x}\,dx=\lambda,$$ then the value of $$\frac{32\lambda}{\pi^2}$$ is:

Question 2

If $$\int_0^1 \frac{\ln(1+x)}{1+x^2}\,dx = \lambda,$$ then the value of $$\frac{8\lambda}{\pi\ \ln2}$$ is:

Question 3

Let a positive function $$f(x)$$ satisfy the relation:

$$f(x) \cdot f'(-x) = f(-x) \cdot f'(x) \quad \text{for all } x$$

given that $$f(0) = 3$$.

Then, evaluate the value of the definite integral:

$$\int_{-51}^{51} \frac{dx}{3 + f(x)}$$
