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

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

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

Solution steps

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

Expand

\frac{x - 2}{x ^{2} + 1} : \frac{x}{x ^{2} + 1} - \frac{2}{x ^{2} + 1}

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

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

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

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

Add a constant to the solution

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

\int \frac{2 x + 3}{4 - x ^{2}} d x

\int 3 y^{2} e^{y^{3}} d y

\int \frac{x ^{2}}{( x ^{3} + 5 ) ^{4}} d x

\int x^{2} 2 x^{3} - 4 d x

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