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

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

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

Solution steps

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

Expand

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

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

Use the common integral:

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

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

Add a constant to the solution

= \frac{ln ∣ x + 1 ∣}{2} - \frac{ln ∣ x - 1 ∣}{2} + C

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

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

\int cos (11 x) d x

\int 5 sin (x) + 2 cos (x) d x

\int \frac{cos ( x )}{tan ( x )} d x
