(a) f(x) = ((2x)/(x^2  + 4))           f(−x) = ((2(−x))/((−x)^2  + 4)) = −((2x)/(x^2  + 4)) = −f(x)           f(x) is an odd function           ⇒ ∫_(−b) ^b  f(x) dx = 0

1.((2x)/(x^2 +4)) is odd function  because f(−x)=−f(x)  2.the intregal ∫_(−b) ^b ((2x)/(x^2 +4))dx=∫_(−b) ^0 ((2x)/(x^2 +4))dx+∫_0 ^b ((2x)/(x^2 +4))dx  I=I_1 +I_2   though I_1 =I_2  but I_1 represent area bound by  curve ((2x)/(4+x^2 ))  from  x=−b  to x=0  but that area  is below x axis so  negetive area .  I_2  represent the area bound by the curve ((2x)/(4+x^2 ))  from x=0  to x=b  above x axis so +ve area  hence I_1 +I_2 =0  this is my opinion let others comment...

∫_(−b) ^b   ((2x)/(x^2 + 4)) dx  =  ∫_(−b) ^0  ((2x dx)/(x^2 + 4)) + ∫_0 ^b   ((2x dx)/(x^2 + 4))                                 = ln (b^2 + 4) + ln (b^2 + 4)                                 = 2 ln (b^2 + 4)

in my opinion to the part B, we can define  ∫_(−∞) ^∞ f(x) is convergent or not by check the  limit. it′s divergent while lim_(x→∞)  f(x) = ∞.  lim_(x→∞)    ((2x)/(x^2 + 4)) = lim_(x→∞)   ((x^2 ((2/x)))/(x^2 (1 + (4/x^2 ))))                                    = lim_(x→∞)   (0/(1 + 0))                                   = 0  f(x) = ((2x)/(x^2 + 4))   converges so ∫_(−∞) ^∞ f(x) does.

But Mr Tanmay,   ∫_(−b) ^0  f(x) + ∫_0 ^b  = F(x)∣_(−b) ^0   +   F(x)∣_0 ^b                                 = (F(0) − F(−b))  +  (F(b) − F(0))                                = F(b) + F(b)                                = 2 F(b)
ButMrTanmay,0bf(x)+b0=F(x)0b+F(x)b0=(F(0)F(b))+(F(b)F(0))=F(b)+F(b)=2F(b)

intregal value is same...but from[graph  one  area is above x axis another below xsis so odd function...

thank you Mr Damian and all of you Sir  who have corrected me for my mistake.   what an interesting forum here. now i′m  understand it.

Yes Mr Tanmay. but what i′m questioning  is why ∫_(−b) ^b   ((2x)/(x^2 + 4))  = 0 ? Well, ∫_(−b) ^b   ((2x)/(x^2 + 4)) states  the area of the function through absis.   i hope you don′t mind for my situation   Mr Tanmay.

it is wrong. f(x) is odd, but F(x) is even. Then  F(b)=F(−b)⇒F(b)−F(−b)=F(b)−F(b)=0    this comment was intended for an afrachi′s answer.

Thanks you Sir afachri, tanmay, JDamian for the answers.  Actually I′m agree with Sir tanmay. That′s   what I have been taught in Calculus 1.  There is a difference between a definite integral  and a definite integral as an area

for all  odd function  integrable on ]−a,a[ a∈R^−    we have   ∫_(−a) ^a f(x)dx =0.

(b) is already done after (a)  ∫((2x)/(x^2 +4))dx=ln (x^2 +4) =F(x)  ⇒ g(b)=F(b)−F(−b)=0  lim_(b→∞) g(b)=lim_(b→∞) 0 =0
