integral of 1/(xsqrt(x^2-5))

\int \frac{1}{x x ^{2} - 5} d x

\frac{1}{5} arcsec (\frac{1}{5} x) + C

Solution steps

\int \frac{1}{x x ^{2} - 5} d x

Apply Trigonometric Substitution

: \int \frac{1}{5} d u

= \int \frac{1}{5} d u

Take the constant out:

\int a \cdot f (x) d x = a \cdot \int f (x) d x

= \frac{1}{5} \cdot \int 1 d u

Integral of a constant:

\int a d x = a x

= \frac{1}{5} \cdot 1 \cdot u

Substitute back

u = arcsec (\frac{1}{5} x)

= \frac{1}{5} \cdot 1 \cdot arcsec (\frac{1}{5} x)

Simplify

= \frac{1}{5} arcsec (\frac{1}{5} x)

Add a constant to the solution

= \frac{1}{5} arcsec (\frac{1}{5} x) + C

\int (x + \frac{2}{x}) (x - \frac{2}{x}) d x

\int - 14 x d x

\int \frac{1}{3} e^{3 x + 1} d x

y = sin (4 x), (0.1, 0.4)

\int cos^{2} (5 θ) d θ
