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

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

- \frac{2}{x - 1} + ln ∣ x ∣ + C

Solution steps

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

Expand

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

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

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

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

= ln ∣ x - 1 ∣ - \frac{1}{x - 1} + ln ∣ x ∣ - ln ∣ x - 1 ∣ - \frac{1}{x - 1}

Simplify

ln ∣ x - 1 ∣ - \frac{1}{x - 1} + ln ∣ x ∣ - ln ∣ x - 1 ∣ - \frac{1}{x - 1} : - \frac{2}{x - 1} + ln ∣ x ∣

= - \frac{2}{x - 1} + ln ∣ x ∣

Add a constant to the solution

= - \frac{2}{x - 1} + ln ∣ x ∣ + C

\int \frac{1}{z} \frac{1}{x} (x + \frac{z}{x}) d x

\int \frac{4 x ^{2}}{( 1 - 2 x ^{3} ) ^{4}} d x

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

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

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