integral of 1/(sqrt(x^2+16))

\int \frac{1}{x ^{2} + 16} d x

ln (\frac{1}{4} x + 16 + x^{2}) + C

Solution steps

\int \frac{1}{x ^{2} + 16} 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}{4} x)

= ln tan (arctan (\frac{1}{4} x)) + sec (arctan (\frac{1}{4} x))

Simplify

ln tan (arctan (\frac{1}{4} x)) + sec (arctan (\frac{1}{4} x)) : ln (\frac{1}{4} x + 16 + x^{2})

= ln (\frac{1}{4} x + 16 + x^{2})

Add a constant to the solution

= ln (\frac{1}{4} x + 16 + x^{2}) + C

e^{e^{x}}

\int_{0}^{\frac{π}{4}} sec^{4} (x) d x

ln 3 x^{3} \cdot sec^{3} ({5 x + 4})

\int \frac{x + 3}{x ^{2} + 2 x} d x

\frac{\partial}{\partial x} (2 x^{3} y)
