integral of 1/(sqrt(a^2+x^2))

integral

\frac{1}{a ^{2} + x ^{2}}

ln (\frac{x + a ^{2} + x ^{2}}{∣ a ∣}) + C

Solution steps

\int \frac{1}{a ^{2} + x ^{2}} d x

Apply Trigonometric Substitution

: \int sec (u) d u

= \int sec (u) d u

Use the common integral:

\int sec (u) d u = ln ∣ tan (u) + sec (u) ∣

= ln ∣ tan (u) + sec (u) ∣

Substitute back

u = arctan (\frac{1}{a} x)

= ln tan (arctan (\frac{1}{a} x)) + sec (arctan (\frac{1}{a} x))

Simplify

ln tan (arctan (\frac{1}{a} x)) + sec (arctan (\frac{1}{a} x)) : ln (\frac{x + a ^{2} + x ^{2}}{∣ a ∣})

= ln (\frac{x + a ^{2} + x ^{2}}{∣ a ∣})

Add a constant to the solution

= ln (\frac{x + a ^{2} + x ^{2}}{∣ a ∣}) + C

lo g_{10} (x^{2} + 4)

ln^{4} (x) + 1

\frac{1}{z ^{2}}

\frac{2 e ^{- x}}{3}

3 - x^{2}
