A closed form for a triple integral involving Heron's formula

Let $$S(x,y,z)=\frac14\sqrt{(x+y+z) (-x+y+z) (x-y+z) (x+y-z) }\tag1$$ (note that it's Heron's formula for the area of a triangle with sides of lengths $x,y,z$). I'm trying to evaluate the following ...

An integral related to Gamma value.

We have: $$\int_{0}^{\pi/2}\frac{\sin{x}\log{(\tan{(x/2))}+x}}{\sqrt{\sin{x}}(\sin{x}+1)}dx=\pi-\frac{\sqrt{2\pi}\Gamma{(1/4)}^{2}}{16}-\frac{\sqrt{2}\pi^{5/2}}{2\Gamma{(1/4)}^{2}}\tag{1}.$$ As other ...

Evaluate $\int_{0}^{1} \frac{K(k)E(k)^2-\frac{\pi^3}{8} }{k} \text{d}k$ and $\int_{0}^{1} \frac{E(k)^3-\frac{\pi^3}{8} }{k} \text{d}k$

Let $K(k),E(k)$ be the complete elliptic integral of the first kind and second kind respectively, where $k$ is the elliptic modulus. Consider four integrals, $$\begin{aligned} &I_1=\int_{0}^{1} \...

Evaluate $\int_{0}^{\pi/2} \ln\left[ \tan\left ( \frac{\theta}{2}\right) \right ]^2 K\left ( \sin\theta \right )\text{d}\theta$

Let us define $K(x)$ as complete elliptic integral of the first kind, where $x$ is elliptic modulus. A possible closed-form is ($G$ denotes Catalan's constant.) $$ \int_{0}^{\pi/2} \ln\left[ \tan\left ...
