The correct answer is: $\frac{\pi}{4}$
(D)
$I=\int_{0}^{\frac{\pi}{2}} \frac{\sqrt[7]{\sin x}}{\sqrt[7]{\sin x}+\sqrt[7]{\cos x}}$...(1)
$=\int_{0}^{\frac{\pi}{2}} \frac{\sqrt{\sin \left(\frac{\pi}{2}-x\right)}}{\sqrt{\sin \left(\frac{\pi}{2}-x\right)+\sqrt{\cos \left(\frac{\pi-x}{2}\right)}} \mathrm{dx}}$
$I=\int_{0}^{r / 2} \frac{\sqrt[7]{\cos x}}{\sqrt[7]{\cos x}+\sqrt[7]{\sin x}} d x$...(2)
Equation $(1)-(2)$ gives
$\begin{aligned}
2 I &=\int_{0}^{\frac{\pi}{2}} 1 d x=[x]_{0}^{\frac{\pi}{2}}=\frac{\pi}{2} \\
\therefore I &=\frac{\pi}{4}
\end{aligned}$
