Consider the function $$f:\left( { - \infty ,\infty } \right) \to \left( { - \infty ,\infty } \right)$$ defined by

$$f\left( x \right) = {{{x^2} - ax + 1} \over {{x^2} + ax + 1}},0 < a < 2.$$

The area of the region between the curves $$y = \sqrt {{{1 + \sin x} \over {\cos x}}} $$
and $$y = \sqrt {{{1 - \sin x} \over {\cos x}}} $$ bounded by the lines $$x=0$$ and $$x = {\pi \over 4}$$ is

Let $$I = \int {{{{e^x}} \over {{e^{4x}} + {e^{2x}} + 1}}dx,\,\,J = \int {{{{e^{ - x}}} \over {{e^{ - 4x}} + {e^{ - 2x}} + 1}}dx.} } $$ Then

for an arbitrary constant $$C$$, the value of $$J -I$$ equals :

Let the function $$g:\left( { - \infty ,\infty } \right) \to \left( { - {\pi \over 2},{\pi \over 2}} \right)$$ be given by

$$g\left( u \right) = 2{\tan ^{ - 1}}\left( {{e^u}} \right) - {\pi \over 2}.$$ Then, $$g$$ is
