Another way of evaluating the integral - ∫ 0 1 x lo g ( 1 + x ) d x = ∫ 0 1 ∫ 0 1 1 + x y 1 d x d y = ∫ 0 1 ∫ 0 1 n = 0 ∑ ∞ ( − 1 ) n x n y n d x d y = n = 0 ∑ ∞ ∫ 0 1 ∫ 0 1 ( − 1 ) n x n y n d x d y = n = 0 ∑ ∞ ( n + 1 ) 2 ( − 1 ) n
I Am Hoping For Some one to give me the proof that
n = 1 ∑ ∞ n 2 ( − 1 ) n + 1 = 1 2 π 2
Log in to reply
n = 1 ∑ ∞ n 2 ( − 1 ) n + 1 = n > 0 , odd ∑ n 2 1 − n > 0 , even ∑ n 2 1 = ( ζ ( 2 ) − 4 ζ ( 2 ) ) − 4 ζ ( 2 ) = 2 ζ ( 2 )
Facts used
1 ) n > 0 , even ∑ n 2 1 = 4 ζ ( 2 )
2 ) n > 0 , odd ∑ n 2 1 = ζ ( 2 ) − n > 0 , even ∑ n 2 1
You may include this in your solution if you want.

@Pratik Shastri – Do you know Hitarth Shah - he also studies in DPS and goes to fiitjee
nice ques had fun while solving :P
did the same way!!!!
Take logarithm on both sides. Sum the series using integration and evaluate the integral by using zeta function. Take antilog and that's the answer
I did it that way , but I am getting e 4
β = b
l n b = n 1 l i m n → ∞ ∑ l o g ( 1 + n r )
l n b = ∫ 0 1 l o g ( 1 + x ) d x
l n b = l n 4 − l n e = l n e 4
β = e 4 = 1 . 4 7 1

Its
n → ∞ lim r = 1 ∏ n ( 1 + n r ) r 1
And
Not
n → ∞ lim r = 1 ∏ n ( 1 + n r ) n 1
So The problem is Right.

Solution
β = n → ∞ lim r = 1 ∏ n ( 1 + n r ) r 1
Taking Logarithm on Both Sides we get,
ln β = n → ∞ lim r = 1 ∑ n r 1 ln ( 1 + n r )
Multiplying And Dividing By n ,We get
ln β = n → ∞ lim r = 1 ∑ n n 1 r n ln ( 1 + n r )
Which Can be Rewritten as,
ln β = n → ∞ lim r = 1 ∑ n n 1 ( n r ) 1 ln ( 1 + n r )
Now It can Be Written in Form of Integration As Using Riemann sums ,
ln β = ∫ 0 1 x ln ( 1 + x ) d x
Using Series Expansion Since ∣ x ∣ ≤ 1 , We Get,
ln β = ∫ 0 1 x n = 1 ∑ ∞ n ( − 1 ) n + 1 x n d x
Since,
ln ( 1 + x ) = n = 1 ∑ ∞ n ( − 1 ) n + 1 x n = x − 2 x 2 + 3 x 3 − ⋯ f o r ∣ x ∣ ≤ 1 , u n l e s s x = − 1 .
Which Can Be Simplified to,
ln β = ∫ 0 1 x x − 2 x 2 + 3 x 3 − ⋯ d x
Which Again Simplifies to,
ln β = ∫ 0 1 1 − 2 x + 3 x 2 − ⋯ d x
Integrating We Get,
ln β = x − 2 2 x 2 + 3 2 x 3 − 4 2 x 4 + ⋯ ∣ ∣ ∣ ∣ 0 1
Putting The Limits We Get,
ln β = 1 − 2 2 1 + 3 2 1 − 4 2 1 + ⋯
And It is Known That
n = 1 ∑ ∞ n 2 ( − 1 ) n + 1 = 1 2 π 2
So
ln β = 1 2 π 2
And
β = e 1 2 π 2
Which Is Approximately
β = 2.27610....
