This discussion board is a place to discuss our Daily Challenges and the math and science
related to those challenges. Explanations are more than just a solution — they should
explain the steps and thinking strategies that you used to obtain the solution. Comments
should further the discussion of math and science.
When posting on Brilliant:
Use the emojis to react to an explanation, whether you're congratulating a job well done , or just really confused .
Ask specific questions about the challenge or the steps in somebody's explanation. Well-posed questions can add a lot to the discussion, but posting "I don't understand!" doesn't help anyone.
Try to contribute something new to the discussion, whether it is an extension, generalization or other idea related to the challenge.
Stay on topic — we're all here to learn more about math and science, not to hear about your favorite get-rich-quick scheme or current world events.

I feel its somewhat related to Riemann Sums.But fortunately we have a cool guy in our community: @Rishabh Cool who will post an awesome solution to that problem :)
Unfortunately I had tried that problem many times..... But I'm not able to find from where to start ..... Probably that integration sign is doing most of the harm... There might be a way to get rid of that integration sign.... Probably @Rishabh Deep Singh can help by telling what he has done to crack the problem.... DO you have a hint Nihar??
Step 1) Notice that the integrand is an even function, so ∫−∞∞⋯=2∫0∞⋯.
Step 2) Break the integral into two parts: 2∫0∞⋯=2∫01⋯+2∫1∞⋯.
Step 3) For the latter integral, try a substitution of y=1/x.
Step 4) Combine the 2 integrals into 1. Have you tried GP?
Step 5) Profit.
Second question.
Do you know how to differentiate a Beta function? Differentiate through an integral
Step 1) B(a,b)=Γ(a+b)Γ(a)Γ(b)=∫0π/2(sinx)a(cosx)bdx.
Step 2) Differentiiate both sides with respect to b.
Step 3) What is the derivative of a Beta function?
Step 4) Profit.

Correct me if I am wrong.

It is very easy. Just a matter of 5-6 steps. Use Ramanujan's Master Theorem. I'll provide a solution after 3 April.

I had missed a term that's why I got it as infinity.
Please send Us solution Now. I need it. Please!
