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

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

- ln ∣ x ∣ + ln ∣ x + 1 ∣ + ln ∣ x - 1 ∣ + C

Solution steps

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

Take the partial fraction of

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

= \int - \frac{1}{x} + \frac{1}{x + 1} + \frac{1}{x - 1} d x

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

\int \frac{1}{x} d x = ln ∣ x ∣

\int \frac{1}{x + 1} d x = ln ∣ x + 1 ∣

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

= - ln ∣ x ∣ + ln ∣ x + 1 ∣ + ln ∣ x - 1 ∣

Add a constant to the solution

= - ln ∣ x ∣ + ln ∣ x + 1 ∣ + ln ∣ x - 1 ∣ + C

f (x) = \frac{5 + csc ( x )}{9 - csc ( x )}

g

\int \frac{1}{9 - 49 x ^{2}} d x

6 t sin (π t)
