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

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

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

Solution steps

\int \frac{1}{x ^{2} - 1} 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 5 (400 + 5 t)^{3} d t

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

\int sec^{2} (w) tan^{2} (w) d w

\int \frac{1}{ln ( 3 x )} d x

\int e^{9 x + 4} d x
