integral of 1/(a^2+b^2x^2)

\int \frac{1}{a ^{2} + b ^{2} x ^{2}} d x

\frac{1}{ab} arctan (\frac{b}{a} x) + C

Solution steps

\int \frac{1}{a ^{2} + b ^{2} x ^{2}} d x

Apply Integral Substitution

= \int \frac{1}{ab ( u ^{2} + 1 )} d u

Take the constant out:

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

= \frac{1}{ab} \cdot \int \frac{1}{u ^{2} + 1} d u

Use the common integral:

\int \frac{1}{u ^{2} + 1} d u = arctan (u)

= \frac{1}{ab} arctan (u)

Substitute back

u = \frac{b}{a} x

= \frac{1}{ab} arctan (\frac{b}{a} x)

Add a constant to the solution

= \frac{1}{ab} arctan (\frac{b}{a} x) + C

\int_{0}^{8} \frac{1}{1 + x} d x

\int 2 x y - 9 x^{2} d x

\int_{2}^{4} 10 + 4 x - 3 x^{3} d x

2 x - 2 x^{2}

0.9 x^{3} 3^{x}
