\(∫\frac {dx}{x(x^2+1)} \ equals \)
\(∫\frac {dx}{x(x^2+1)} \ equals \)
\(log|x|-\frac 12log(x^2+1)+C\)
\(log|x|+\frac 12log(x^2+1)+C\)
\(-log|x|+\frac 12log(x^2+1)+C\)
\(\frac 12log|x|+log(x^2+1)+C\)
The Correct Option is A
Solution and Explanation
Let \(\frac {1}{x(x^2+1)}\) = \(\frac Ax+\frac {Bx+C}{x^2+1}\)
\(1 = A(x^2+1)+(Bx+C)x\)
Equating the coefficients of x2, x, and constant term, we obtain
A + B = 0
C = 0
A = 1
On solving these equations, we obtain
A = 1, B = −1, and C = 0
∴ \(\frac {1}{x(x^2+1)}\) = \(\frac 1x+\frac {-x}{x^2+1}\)
⇒ \(∫\)\(\frac {1}{x(x^2+1)} dx\) = \(∫\)\(\frac 1x-\frac {x}{x^2+1}dx\)
= \(log|x|-\frac 12log|x^2+1|+C\)
Hence, the correct Answer is (A).
