integral of 1/(a^2-u^2)

\int \frac{1}{a ^{2} - u ^{2}} d u

\frac{1}{2 a} (ln \frac{u}{a} + 1 - ln \frac{u}{a} - 1) + C

Solution steps

\int \frac{1}{a ^{2} - u ^{2}} d u

Factor

a^{2} - u^{2} : - (- a^{2} + u^{2})

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

Take the constant out:

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

= - \int \frac{1}{- a ^{2} + u ^{2}} d u

Apply Integral Substitution

= - \int \frac{1}{a ( v ^{2} - 1 )} d v

Take the constant out:

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

= - \frac{1}{a} \cdot \int \frac{1}{v ^{2} - 1} d v

Factor

v^{2} - 1 : - (- v^{2} + 1)

= - \frac{1}{a} \cdot \int \frac{1}{- ( - v ^{2} + 1 )} d v

Take the constant out:

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

= - \frac{1}{a} (- \int \frac{1}{- v ^{2} + 1} d v)

Use the common integral:

\int \frac{1}{- v ^{2} + 1} d v = \frac{ln ∣ v + 1 ∣}{2} - \frac{ln ∣ v - 1 ∣}{2}

= - \frac{1}{a} (- (\frac{ln ∣ v + 1 ∣}{2} - \frac{ln ∣ v - 1 ∣}{2}))

Substitute back

v = \frac{u}{a}

= - \frac{1}{a} (- (\frac{ln \frac{u}{a} + 1}{2} - \frac{ln \frac{u}{a} - 1}{2}))

Simplify

- \frac{1}{a} (- (\frac{ln \frac{u}{a} + 1}{2} - \frac{ln \frac{u}{a} - 1}{2})) : \frac{1}{2 a} (ln \frac{u}{a} + 1 - ln \frac{u}{a} - 1)

= \frac{1}{2 a} (ln \frac{u}{a} + 1 - ln \frac{u}{a} - 1)

Add a constant to the solution

= \frac{1}{2 a} (ln \frac{u}{a} + 1 - ln \frac{u}{a} - 1) + C

\int \frac{1}{x ( 2 + x )} d x

θ^{^{''}} + \frac{a}{b} \cdot θ = 0

f (x) = x e^{4 x + s i n (x) - 10}

\frac{\partial}{\partial x} (2 e^{x yz} sin (x w))

\int_{2}^{5} \frac{1}{x} d x
