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

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

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

Solution steps

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

Expand

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

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

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

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

Add a constant to the solution

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

\int (25 x^{2} - 10 x + 1) d x

\int \frac{2 x ^{2} + 3 x + 18}{( 2 x + 1 ) ( x ^{2} + 4 )} d x

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

\int (e^{x} - sin (x)) d x

\int - 2 x - 3 d x
