integral of 1/(sqrt(-x^2-4x+5))

\int \frac{1}{- x ^{2} - 4 x + 5} d x

arcsin (\frac{1}{3} (x + 2)) + C

Solution steps

\int \frac{1}{- x ^{2} - 4 x + 5} d x

Complete the square

- x^{2} - 4 x + 5 : - (x + 2)^{2} + 9

= \int \frac{1}{- ( x + 2 ) ^{2} + 9} d x

Apply u-substitution

: \int \frac{1}{- u ^{2} + 9} d u

= \int \frac{1}{- u ^{2} + 9} d u

Apply Trigonometric Substitution

: \int 1 d v

= \int 1 d v

Integral of a constant:

\int a d x = a x

= 1 \cdot v

Substitute back

= 1 \cdot arcsin (\frac{1}{3} (x + 2))

Simplify

= arcsin (\frac{1}{3} (x + 2))

Add a constant to the solution

= arcsin (\frac{1}{3} (x + 2)) + C

\int \frac{2}{x ( ln ( x ) ) ^{4}} d x

\int \frac{x + 1}{x ^{2} + 4 x + 13} d x

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

\int 2 t ln (t) d t

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