integral of (x-2)/(x^2-2x+2)

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

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

Solution steps

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

Complete the square

x^{2} - 2 x + 2 : (x - 1)^{2} + 1

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

Apply u-substitution

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

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

Expand

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

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

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

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

= \frac{1}{2} ln u^{2} + 1 - arctan (u)

Substitute back

u = x - 1

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

Simplify

\frac{1}{2} ln (x - 1)^{2} + 1 - arctan (x - 1) : \frac{1}{2} ln x^{2} - 2 x + 2 - arctan (x - 1)

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

Add a constant to the solution

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

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

\int \frac{( z + 1 )}{z z - 1} d z

\int \frac{1}{5 sin ^{2} ( x ) - 3 cos ^{2} ( x ) - 2} d x

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

\int 2 x (x + 2 x^{\frac{1}{3}}) d x
