If $${a_1},{a_2},{a_3},........,{a_n},.....$$ are in G.P., then the determinant $$$\Delta = \left| {\matrix{ {\log {a_n}} & {\log {a_{n + 1}}} & {\log {a_{n + 2}}} \cr {\log {a_{n + 3}}} & {\log {a_{n + 4}}} & {\log {a_{n + 5}}} \cr {\log {a_{n + 6}}} & {\log {a_{n + 7}}} & {\log {a_{n + 8}}} \cr } } \right|$$$
is equal to :

If $${a^2} + {b^2} + {c^2} = - 2$$ and

f$$\left( x \right) = \left| {\matrix{ {1 + {a^2}x} & {\left( {1 + {b^2}} \right)x} & {\left( {1 + {c^2}} \right)x} \cr {\left( {1 + {a^2}} \right)x} & {1 + {b^2}x} & {\left( {1 + {c^2}} \right)x} \cr {\left( {1 + {a^2}} \right)x} & {\left( {1 + {b^2}} \right)x} & {1 + {c^2}x} \cr } } \right|,$$

then f$$(x)$$ is a polynomial of degree :

$$\int {{{\left\{ {{{\left( {\log x - 1} \right)} \over {1 + {{\left( {\log x} \right)}^2}}}} \right\}}^2}\,\,dx} $$ is equal to

If $${I_1} = \int\limits_0^1 {{2^{{x^2}}}dx,{I_2} = \int\limits_0^1 {{2^{{x^3}}}dx,\,{I_3} = \int\limits_1^2 {{2^{{x^2}}}dx} } } $$ and $${I_4} = \int\limits_1^2 {{2^{{x^3}}}dx} $$ then
