# 1/4ln2.#

Let, #I=int_0^(pi/12) tan4xdx.#

By the Fundamental Theorem of Calculus, we know that,

#intf(x)dx=F(x)+C rArr int_a^bf(x)dx=[F(x)]_a^b=F(b)-F(a)#.

Now, #inttan4xdx=1/4ln|sec4x|+C.#

#:. int_0^(pi/12)tan4xdx=[1/4ln|sec4x|]_0^(pi/12),#

#=1/4[ln|sec(4*pi/12)|-ln|sec0|],#

#=1/4[ln|sec(pi/3)|-ln|1|],#

#=1/4[ln|2|-0],#

# rArr int_0^(pi/12)tan4xdx=1/4ln2.#
