did u reverse the sign twice?

Umm... Why not substitute x=tan(theta) That will do the trick ig.

Oh my bad But even after that how come we’ll get ln2? Oh yeah that would definitely work but im currently focused on learning this reciprocal thing
SirLancelotDuLac
I see. Then notice that $f(x)+f(\frac{1}{x})=ln(x+\frac{1}{x})$, so $I=\int_{0}^{1} ln(x+\frac{1}{x}) ,dx$

Also you seem to have changed sign twice in 5th line of solving (one while intechanging limits and other inside the log.)

Yep. This is correct, but the reciprocal thing becomes the question itself. Apart from tan(theta) sub., the other way is this ig.

Ah it seems to me that the tan(thetha) thing would work better here
