integral from-2 to 0 of 1/(x^2+2x+2)

\int_{- 2}^{0} \frac{1}{x ^{2} + 2 x + 2} d x

\frac{π}{2}

Decimal

1.57079 \dots

Solution steps

\int_{- 2}^{0} \frac{1}{x ^{2} + 2 x + 2} d x

Complete the square

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

= \int_{- 2}^{0} \frac{1}{( x + 1 ) ^{2} + 1} d x

Apply u-substitution

: \int_{- 1}^{1} \frac{1}{u ^{2} + 1} d u

= \int_{- 1}^{1} \frac{1}{u ^{2} + 1} d u

Use the common integral:

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

= [arctan (u)]_{- 1}^{1}

Compute the boundaries:

\frac{π}{2}

= \frac{π}{2}

\int_{- 1}^{0} \frac{e ^{\frac{1}{x}}}{x ^{3}} d x

\int_{1}^{5} x e^{- x} d x

\int_{1}^{2} (x^{2} + \frac{1}{x ^{4}}) d x

\int_{0}^{\frac{π}{4}} \frac{x}{1 + cos ( 2 x )} d x

\int_{\frac{1}{2}}^{\frac{1}{3}} cos (π w) d w
