Question:

The value of the integral
\[ \int_a^b \frac{\sqrt{x} \, dx}{\sqrt{x} + \sqrt{a + b - x}} \]
is:

Show Hint

Use symmetry property: \[ I = \int_a^b f(x) \, dx = \int_a^b f(a+b-x) \, dx \]

The Correct Option is B

Solution and Explanation

Step 1: Replace \(x \to a+b-x\) and add both forms.
Step 2:
\[ I + I = \int_a^b dx = b - a \quad \implies \quad I = \frac{b-a}{2} \]
