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

integral

\frac{x ^{2} - 1}{x}

- arctan (x^{2} - 1) + x^{2} - 1 + C

Solution steps

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

Apply u-substitution

: \int \frac{u ^{2}}{u ^{2} + 1} d u

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

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

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

Apply the Sum Rule:

\int f (x) \pm g (x) d x = \int f (x) d x \pm \int g (x) d x

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

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

\int 1 d u = u

= - arctan (u) + u

Substitute back

u = x^{2} - 1

= - arctan (x^{2} - 1) + x^{2} - 1

Add a constant to the solution

= - arctan (x^{2} - 1) + x^{2} - 1 + C

1 + 4 x^{2}

\frac{1}{x ^{\frac{1}{3}}}

\frac{10}{x}

\frac{( 1 - z ) ^{5}}{10}

\frac{sin ^{3} ( x )}{cos ^{2} ( x )}
