integral of 1/(x^3+2x)

\int \frac{1}{x ^{3} + 2 x} d x

\frac{1}{2} ln ∣ x ∣ - \frac{1}{4} ln x^{2} + 2 + C

Solution steps

\int \frac{1}{x ^{3} + 2 x} d x

Take the partial fraction of

\frac{1}{x ^{3} + 2 x} : \frac{1}{2 x} - \frac{x}{2 ( x ^{2} + 2 )}

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

Apply the Sum Rule:

\int f (x) \pm g (x) d x = \int f (x) d x \pm \int g (x) d x

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

\int \frac{1}{2 x} d x = \frac{1}{2} ln ∣ x ∣

\int \frac{x}{2 ( x ^{2} + 2 )} d x = \frac{1}{4} ln x^{2} + 2

= \frac{1}{2} ln ∣ x ∣ - \frac{1}{4} ln x^{2} + 2

Add a constant to the solution

= \frac{1}{2} ln ∣ x ∣ - \frac{1}{4} ln x^{2} + 2 + C

\int \frac{sin ^{3} ( 4 x )}{cos ( 4 x )} d x

\int \frac{sin ( x )}{( cos ( x ) ) ^{5}} d x

3 x^{2}

\int \frac{1 - x ^{2}}{x ^{3}} d x

\int (- 6 x^{3} + 9 x^{2} + 4 x - 3) d x
