integral from-1 to 1 of (5/(x^2+1))

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

\frac{5 π}{2}

Decimal

7.85398 \dots

Solution steps

\int_{- 1}^{1} \frac{5}{x ^{2} + 1} d x

Take the constant out:

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

= 5 \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)

= 5 [arctan (x)]_{- 1}^{1}

Compute the boundaries:

\frac{π}{2}

= 5 \cdot \frac{π}{2}

Simplify

= \frac{5 π}{2}

\int_{0}^{4} sin^{2} (x) d x

\int_{- \infty}^{3} 4^{x} d x

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

\int_{0}^{4} (6 x - 3) d x

\int_{1}^{2} \frac{1}{v} d v
