integral from-1 to 1 of 4/(x^2+1)

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

2 π

Decimal Notation

6.28318 \dots

Solution steps

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

Take the constant out:

\int a \cdot f (x) d x = a \cdot \int f (x) d x

= 4 \cdot \int_{- 1}^{1} \frac{1}{x ^{2} + 1} d x

Use the common integral:

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

= 4 [arctan (x)]_{- 1}^{1}

Compute the boundaries:

\frac{π}{2}

= 4 \cdot \frac{π}{2}

Simplify

= 2 π

\int_{2}^{5} 8 d x

\int_{0}^{y} x y^{2} - x^{2} d x

\int_{0}^{\frac{4}{7}} \frac{1}{49 x ^{2} + 16} d x

\int_{0}^{3} y e^{- y^{2}} d y

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