integral from 1 to 4 of 1/((x-2)^2)

\int_{1}^{4} \frac{1}{( x - 2 ) ^{2}} d x

diverges

Solution steps

\int_{1}^{4} \frac{1}{( x - 2 ) ^{2}} d x

Find undefined (singularity) points:

x = 2

If exist

b, a < b < c, f (b) =

undefined

, \int_{a}^{c} f (x) d x = \int_{a}^{b} f (x) d x + \int_{b}^{c} f (x) d x

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

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

diverges

If part of the expression diverges, then entire expression diverges

= diverges

\int_{- \frac{π}{2}}^{\frac{π}{2}} sec (x) d x

\int_{\frac{5 π}{6}}^{π} \frac{cos ^{4} ( x )}{1 - sin ( x )} d x

\int_{- 1}^{0} (x (x^{2} - 1)^{10}) d x

\int_{1}^{3} \frac{1}{x ^{2} - 4} d x

\int_{0}^{1} \frac{1}{x ^{2} - 8 x + 15} d x
