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

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

\frac{1}{4} (2 ln (x) - ln x^{2} + 1 + \frac{1}{x ^{2} + 1}) + C

Solution steps

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

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}{x ( x ^{2} + 1 ) ^{2}} d x

Apply u-substitution

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

= \frac{1}{2} \cdot \int \frac{1}{2 ( u - 1 ) u ^{2}} d u

Take the constant out:

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

= \frac{1}{2} \cdot \frac{1}{2} \cdot \int \frac{1}{( u - 1 ) u ^{2}} d u

Take the partial fraction of

\frac{1}{( u - 1 ) u ^{2}} : \frac{1}{u - 1} - \frac{1}{u} - \frac{1}{u ^{2}}

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

= \frac{1}{2} \cdot \frac{1}{2} (\int \frac{1}{u - 1} d u - \int \frac{1}{u} d u - \int \frac{1}{u ^{2}} d u)

\int \frac{1}{u - 1} d u = ln ∣ u - 1 ∣

\int \frac{1}{u} d u = ln ∣ u ∣

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

= \frac{1}{2} \cdot \frac{1}{2} (ln ∣ u - 1 ∣ - ln ∣ u ∣ - (- \frac{1}{u}))

Substitute back

u = x^{2} + 1

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

Simplify

\frac{1}{2} \cdot \frac{1}{2} (ln x^{2} + 1 - 1 - ln x^{2} + 1 - (- \frac{1}{x ^{2} + 1})) : \frac{1}{4} (2 ln (x) - ln x^{2} + 1 + \frac{1}{x ^{2} + 1})

= \frac{1}{4} (2 ln (x) - ln x^{2} + 1 + \frac{1}{x ^{2} + 1})

Add a constant to the solution

= \frac{1}{4} (2 ln (x) - ln x^{2} + 1 + \frac{1}{x ^{2} + 1}) + C

\int (3 x^{2} y - 2 x y^{4} + 6 x - 7 y) d x

\int \frac{( x ^{3} + 4 )}{( x ) ( x + 1 )} d x

\int \frac{x ^{2} + 6}{( x - 1 ) ^{2} ( x - 2 )} d x

\int \frac{1}{x + 3 + x + 3} d x

\int \frac{2 x}{x - 7} d x
