integral of 1/(sqrt(x^2-2x+6))

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

ln \frac{1}{5} (x - 1) + \frac{1}{5} (x^{2} - 2 x + 6) + C

Solution steps

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

Complete the square

x^{2} - 2 x + 6 : (x - 1)^{2} + 5

= \int \frac{1}{( x - 1 ) ^{2} + 5} d x

Apply u-substitution

: \int \frac{1}{u ^{2} + 5} d u

= \int \frac{1}{u ^{2} + 5} d u

Apply Trigonometric Substitution

: \int sec (v) d v

= \int sec (v) d v

Use the common integral:

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

= ln ∣ tan (v) + sec (v) ∣

Substitute back

= ln tan (arctan (\frac{1}{5} (x - 1))) + sec (arctan (\frac{1}{5} (x - 1)))

Simplify

ln tan (arctan (\frac{1}{5} (x - 1))) + sec (arctan (\frac{1}{5} (x - 1))) : ln \frac{1}{5} (x - 1) + \frac{1}{5} (x^{2} - 2 x + 6)

= ln \frac{1}{5} (x - 1) + \frac{1}{5} (x^{2} - 2 x + 6)

Add a constant to the solution

= ln \frac{1}{5} (x - 1) + \frac{1}{5} (x^{2} - 2 x + 6) + C

\int \frac{x - 2}{x ^{2} - 4 x + 4} d x

\int \frac{sin ( x )}{tan ^{2} ( x )} d x

\int e^{y} (y - 1) d y

\int x^{3} e^{\frac{x}{3}} d x

\int \frac{x}{( 1 + x ^{2} ) ^{4}} d x
