integral of x/(sqrt(x^2+a^2))

integral

\frac{x}{x ^{2} + a ^{2}}

x^{2} + a^{2} + C

Solution steps

\int \frac{x}{x ^{2} + a ^{2}} d x

Apply u-substitution

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

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

Take the constant out:

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

= \frac{1}{2} \cdot \int \frac{1}{u} d u

Apply the Power Rule

: 2 u^{\frac{1}{2}}

= \frac{1}{2} \cdot 2 u^{\frac{1}{2}}

Substitute back

u = x^{2} + a^{2}

= \frac{1}{2} \cdot 2 (x^{2} + a^{2})^{\frac{1}{2}}

Simplify

\frac{1}{2} \cdot 2 (x^{2} + a^{2})^{\frac{1}{2}} : x^{2} + a^{2}

= x^{2} + a^{2}

Add a constant to the solution

= x^{2} + a^{2} + C

sinh^{2} (x)

\frac{1}{( 2 - x )}

\frac{sec ^{2} ( x )}{sin ( x )}

(2 x)^{2}

\frac{( 1 - x ^{3} )}{( 1 - x )}
