  • Session A

If a(x),b(x),c(x)a(x), b(x), c(x) and d(x)d(x) are polynomials in xx , show that ∫1xa(x)c(x)dx⋅∫1xb(x)d(x)dx−∫1xa(x)d(x)dx⋅∫1xb(x)c(x)dx\int_{1}^{x} a(x) c(x) dx \cdot \int_{1}^{x} b(x) d(x) dx - \int_{1}^{x} a(x) d(x) dx \cdot \int_{1}^{x} b(x) c(x) dx is divisible by (x−1)4.(x-1)^4.
