Math Problem Statement

Evaluate the definite integrall from 0 to 1/4. it is 2/sqrt(1-4x^2). dx

Solution

To evaluate the integral

01/4214x2dx,\int_{0}^{1/4} \frac{2}{\sqrt{1 - 4x^2}} \, dx,

Step 1: Recognize the form of the integral

The integrand is of the form 11u2\frac{1}{\sqrt{1 - u^2}}, which resembles the derivative of arcsin(u)\arcsin(u).

Here, let: [ u = 2x, \quad \text{so
