Question

Let $$f\left( x \right)$$  be a continuous function such that the area bounded by the curve $$y = f\left( x \right),\,x$$   -axis and the lines $$x = 0$$  and $$x = a$$  is $$\frac{{{a^2}}}{2} + \frac{a}{2}\sin \,a + \frac{\pi }{2}\cos \,a,$$     then $$f\left( {\frac{\pi }{2}} \right) = ?$$

A. $$1$$
B. $$\frac{1}{2}$$  
C. $$\frac{1}{3}$$
D. None of these
Answer :   $$\frac{1}{2}$$
Solution :
We have, $$\int\limits_0^a {f\left( x \right)dx} = \frac{{{a^2}}}{2} + \frac{a}{2}\sin \,a + \frac{\pi }{2}\cos \,a$$
Differentiating w.r.t. $$a,$$ we get
$$f\left( a \right) = a + \frac{1}{2}\left( {\sin \,a + a\,\cos \,a} \right) - \frac{\pi }{2}\sin \,a$$
Put $$a = \frac{\pi }{2}\,;\,f\left( {\frac{\pi }{2}} \right) = \frac{\pi }{2} + \frac{1}{2} - \frac{\pi }{2} = \frac{1}{2}$$
