JEE Main 5 April 2026, Shift 2, Maths Q18

Question 18 of 75 in this shift, Maths question 18 of 25, Section A.

Let (21−a+21+a)(2^{1-a}+2^{1+a}), f(a)f(a), (3a+3−a)(3^a+3^{-a}) be in A.P. and α\alpha be the minimum value of f(a)f(a). Then the value of the integral ∫log⁡e(α−1)log⁡e(α)dx(e2x−e−2x)\int_{\log_e(\alpha-1)}^{\log_e(\alpha)}\frac{dx}{(e^{2x}-e^{-2x})} is :
