I know it's using the inverse trig functions..
Use Integration by Parts
Let u = x and dv = e^x dx, then du = dx and v = e^x
u*v - ⌠ v du
xe^x - ⌠ e^x dx
xe^x - e^x + C <==== Solution
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
Check solution:
Take the derivative of x*e^x - e^x + C,
e^x + x*e^x - e^x
= e^x - e^x + x*e^x
= 0 + x*e^x
= x*e^x <==== This matches the integrand.
â« [1/(x(x^4-16)^(1/2))] dx =
â« [x / (x^2 (x^4-16)^(1/2) )] dx =
(1/2)â« [1 / (x^2 (x^4-16)^(1/2) )] d(x^2 ) or use x^2 = u you get
(1/2)â« 1 / (u (u^2-16)^(1/2) ) du =
(1/2)â« 1 / (u^2 (1-(4/u)^2)^(1/2) ) du =
- (1/8)â« 1 /â(1-(4/u)^2) d(4/u) =
(-1/8)Arcsin(4/u) + C
(-1/8)Arcsin(4/x^2) + C
Arcsin or sin^(-1)
