integral of 1/(sqrt(x^2+4x+10))

\int \frac{1}{x ^{2} + 4 x + 10} d x

ln \frac{1}{6} (x + 2) + \frac{1}{6} (x^{2} + 4 x + 10) + C

Solution steps

\int \frac{1}{x ^{2} + 4 x + 10} d x

Complete the square

x^{2} + 4 x + 10 : (x + 2)^{2} + 6

= \int \frac{1}{( x + 2 ) ^{2} + 6} d x

Apply u-substitution

= \int \frac{1}{u ^{2} + 6} d u

Apply Trigonometric Substitution

= \int sec (v) d v

Use the common integral:

\int sec (v) d v = ln ∣ tan (v) + sec (v) ∣

= ln ∣ tan (v) + sec (v) ∣

Substitute back

= ln tan (arctan (\frac{1}{6} (x + 2))) + sec (arctan (\frac{1}{6} (x + 2)))

Simplify

ln tan (arctan (\frac{1}{6} (x + 2))) + sec (arctan (\frac{1}{6} (x + 2))) : ln \frac{1}{6} (x + 2) + \frac{1}{6} (x^{2} + 4 x + 10)

= ln \frac{1}{6} (x + 2) + \frac{1}{6} (x^{2} + 4 x + 10)

Add a constant to the solution

= ln \frac{1}{6} (x + 2) + \frac{1}{6} (x^{2} + 4 x + 10) + C
