given is 2\int_{0}^{1}{(tan^{-1}x)^{2}}dx
\Rightarrow 2\int_{0}^{1}{(tan^{-1}x)(tan^{-1}x)}dx
taking first funtion any one and integrating byparts we get
\Rightarrow\left[ 2\left[tan^{-1}x\int{tan^{-1}x}dx \right]^{1}_{0}-2\int_{0}^{1}{\frac{\int tan^{-1}x}{1+x^{2}}}dx\right]
\Rightarrow 2\left[x(tan^{-1}x)^{2}-\frac{1}{2}ln(1+x^{2}) . tan^{-1}x \right]^{1}_{0} - 2\left[\int_{0}^{1}{\frac{xtan^{-1}x}{1+x^{2}}dx} -\frac{1}{2}\int_{0}^{1}{\frac{ln(1+x^{2})}{1+x^{2}}dx}\right]
I thnk now it can be done integrate \int_{0}^{1}{\frac{xtan^{-1}x}{1+x^{2}}} by using by parts and \int_{0}^{1}{\frac{ln(1+x^{2})}{1+x^{2}}dx} can be integrated
hence i guess the question is demolished isn't it

yup i got my mistake and edited that [ made a mistake in 2nd step earlier ] sry [3]
but since i typed that once
once again try karne ka man nahin hai............
If my approach is correct then please tell me..............or shuld i try this in other way

It isnt.
check wat u did after taking ln(1+x2) = t

sry again for a silly mistake .............but edited now.......
i thnk for that log part again we got to use by parts .

I just wonder if this requires expansions - expansion of ln(1+x), where x=sin2θ.

This sum indeed came in CBSE boards two years ago. However, it was a misprint and marks were given to all who tried. This integral is not easy to be asked in the boards and the result is something like
\dfrac{\pi}{8}(\pi+4\ln 2)-2G
where G is the Catalan constant.

but i got it as \frac{\pi }{4}\left(\pi +1 \right)-\frac{1}{2}ln2\left[\frac{\pi }{2}+1 \right]-2
@kaymant sir wuld u please elaborate a bit abt CATALAN CONSTANT. heard of it first time [7]

Catalan's constant is a constant that commonly appears in estimates of combinatorial functions and in certain classes of sums and definite integrals
is a catalant's constant.

Somewhere I read that this catalan const. is -\int_{0}^{1}{\frac{lnx}{1+x^2}dx}.
