Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) \(1-\frac{\pi}{4}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(\begin{aligned} I & =\int_0^{\pi / 4} \tan ^2 x d x=\int_0^{\pi / 2}\left(\sec ^2 x-1\right) d x \\ & =[\tan x-x]_0^{\pi / 4}=1-\frac{\pi}{4} \end{aligned}\) Hence, option (c) is correct.
