Given definite integral \int^{\sqrt{3}}_{1} \frac{dx}{1 +x^2}

Consider \int \frac{dx}{1 +x^2} = \tan^{-1}x

we have then the function of x, as f(x) = \tan^{-1}x

By applying the second fundamental theorem of calculus, we will get

\int^{\sqrt{3}}_{1} \frac{dx}{1 +x^2} = f(\sqrt3) - f(1)

= \tan^{-1}\sqrt{3} - \tan^{-1}1

=\frac{\pi}{3} - \frac{\pi}{4}

= \frac{\pi}{12}

Therefore the correct answer is D.
