integral of 1/(4x^2-4x+5)

\int \frac{1}{4 x ^{2} - 4 x + 5} d x

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

Solution steps

\int \frac{1}{4 x ^{2} - 4 x + 5} d x

Complete the square

4 x^{2} - 4 x + 5 : 4 (x - \frac{1}{2})^{2} + 4

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

Apply u-substitution

: \int \frac{1}{4 u ^{2} + 4} d u

= \int \frac{1}{4 u ^{2} + 4} d u

\frac{1}{4 u ^{2} + 4} = \frac{1}{4} \frac{1}{u ^{2} + 1}

= \int \frac{1}{4} \cdot \frac{1}{u ^{2} + 1} d u

Take the constant out:

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

= \frac{1}{4} \cdot \int \frac{1}{u ^{2} + 1} d u

Use the common integral:

\int \frac{1}{u ^{2} + 1} d u = arctan (u)

= \frac{1}{4} arctan (u)

Substitute back

u = x - \frac{1}{2}

= \frac{1}{4} arctan (x - \frac{1}{2})

Add a constant to the solution

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

\frac{d y}{d x} tan (y) = \frac{1}{x}

x \to 1 lim (18 x^{100} - 5)

\int_{1}^{3} (3 x^{2} + 4) d x

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

\frac{d}{d x} (80 e^{- \frac{x}{10}} - 40 x)
