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

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

ln x^{2} - 1 + x + C

Solution steps

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

Apply Trigonometric Substitution

: \int sec (u) d u

= \int sec (u) d u

Use the common integral:

\int sec (u) d u = ln ∣ tan (u) + sec (u) ∣

= ln ∣ tan (u) + sec (u) ∣

Substitute back

u = arcsec (x)

= ln ∣ tan (arcsec (x)) + sec (arcsec (x)) ∣

Simplify

ln ∣ tan (arcsec (x)) + sec (arcsec (x)) ∣ : ln x^{2} - 1 + x

= ln x^{2} - 1 + x

Add a constant to the solution

= ln x^{2} - 1 + x + C

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

\int s \cdot 2^{s} d s

\int \frac{1}{5 + 25 x ^{2}} d x

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

\int \frac{x - 3}{( x ^{2} - 5 x + 1 )} d x
