integral of x/(sqrt(x^2-a^2))

\int \frac{x}{x ^{2} - a ^{2}} d x

x^{2} - a^{2} + C

Solution steps

\int \frac{x}{x ^{2} - a ^{2}} d x

Apply u-substitution

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

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

Apply the Power Rule

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

= \frac{1}{2} \cdot 2 u^{\frac{1}{2}}

Substitute back

u = x^{2} - a^{2}

= \frac{1}{2} \cdot 2 (x^{2} - a^{2})^{\frac{1}{2}}

Simplify

\frac{1}{2} \cdot 2 (x^{2} - a^{2})^{\frac{1}{2}} : x^{2} - a^{2}

= x^{2} - a^{2}

Add a constant to the solution

= x^{2} - a^{2} + C

\int e^{y + 2 z} d x

\int sin (5 x) cos^{3} (5 x) d x

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

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

\int \frac{x ^{3} - 6 x + 5}{x ^{4}} d x
