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

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

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

Solution steps

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

Apply u-substitution

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

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

Take the constant out:

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

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

Expand

\frac{u - 1}{u ^{2}} : \frac{1}{u} - \frac{1}{u ^{2}}

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

Apply the Sum Rule:

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

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

\int \frac{1}{u} d u = ln ∣ u ∣

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

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

Substitute back

u = 1 + x^{2}

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

Simplify

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

Add a constant to the solution

= \frac{1}{2} (ln 1 + x^{2} + \frac{1}{1 + x ^{2}}) + C

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

\int d (cos (x)) d x

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

\int 3 x + sin (x) d x

\int cos (x) sin (x) cos (sin^{2} (x)) d x
