Vedclass · Answer

(A) Let $I = \int \frac{1}{x^2\sqrt{1+x^2}} dx$. Take $x^2$ common from the square root: $I = \int \frac{1}{x^2 \sqrt{x^2(1 + \frac{1}{x^2})}} dx = \int \frac{1}{x^3 \sqrt{1 + \frac{1}{x^2}}} dx$. Let $1 + \frac{1}{x^2} = t^2$. Then,differentiating both sides with respect to $x$,we get $-\frac{2}{x^3} dx = 2t dt$,which implies $\frac{dx}{x^3} = -t dt$. Substituting these into the integral: $I = \int -t dt / t = -\int dt = -t + c$. Since $t = \sqrt{1 + \frac{1}{x^2}} = \sqrt{\frac{x^2+1}{x^2}} = \frac{\sqrt{x^2+1}}{|x|}$,for $x > 0$,$I = -\frac{\sqrt{x^2+1}}{x} + c$.

$\int \frac{1}{x^2\sqrt{1+x^2}} dx =$
