Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) 0

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Hints: \(I=\int_0^\pi \sin ^{50} x \cdot \cos ^{49} x d x \int_0^4 f(x)=\int_0^4 f(a-x)\) \(\begin{aligned} & I=\int_0^\pi \sin ^{50} x\left(-\cos ^{49}(x)\right)=-\int_0^\pi \sin ^{50} x \cdot \cos ^{49} x \\ & =I=-I \\ & I=0 \end{aligned}\)
