integral of 1/(ysqrt(y^2-4))

\int \frac{1}{y y ^{2} - 4} d y

\frac{1}{2} arcsec (\frac{1}{2} y) + C

Solution steps

\int \frac{1}{y y ^{2} - 4} d y

Apply Trigonometric Substitution

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

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

Integral of a constant:

\int a d x = a x

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

Substitute back

u = arcsec (\frac{1}{2} y)

= \frac{1}{2} \cdot 1 \cdot arcsec (\frac{1}{2} y)

Simplify

= \frac{1}{2} arcsec (\frac{1}{2} y)

Add a constant to the solution

= \frac{1}{2} arcsec (\frac{1}{2} y) + C

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

\int \frac{1}{x ( ln ( x ^{4} ) ) ^{5}} d x

\int \frac{sin ( x )}{x} e^{l n (x)} d x

\int x^{5} ln (8 x^{3}) d x

\int 2 y^{3} 9 - y^{2} d y
