The Correct Option is C

Solution and Explanation

Let I$= \int \limits \frac {(x^2-1)dx}{x^3 \sqrt {2x^4-2x^2+1}}$ $\hspace10mm [dividing \, numerator \, and \, enominator \, by \, x^5]$ $\hspace15mm = \int \limits \frac { \bigg (\frac {1}{x^3} - \frac {1}{x^5} \bigg )dx }{\sqrt {2- \frac {2}{x^2} + \frac {1}{x^4}}} $ Put$2- \frac {2}{x^2}+ \frac {1}{x^4}=t \Rightarrow \bigg ( \frac {4}{x^3}- \frac {4}{x^5} \bigg ) dx=dt$ $\therefore \hspace10mm I= \frac {1}{4} \int \limits \frac {dt}{ \sqrt t}= \frac {1}{4}. \frac {t^{1/2}}{1/2}+c$ $\hspace15mm = \frac {1}{2} \sqrt {2- \frac {2}{x^2}+ \frac {1}{x^4}}+c$

Integral

The representation of the area of a region under a curve is called to be as integral. The actual value of an integral can be acquired (approximately) by drawing rectangles.

  • The definite integral of a function can be shown as the area of the region bounded by its graph of the given function between two points in the line.
  • The area of a region is found by splitting it into thin vertical rectangles and applying the lower and the upper limits, the area of the region is summarized.
  • An integral of a function over an interval on which the integral is described.

Also, F(x) is known to be a Newton-Leibnitz integral or antiderivative or primitive of a function f(x) on an interval I.

F'(x) = f(x)

For every value of x = I.

Types of Integrals:

Integral calculus helps to resolve two major types of problems:

  1. The problem of getting a function if its derivative is given.
  2. The problem of getting the area bounded by the graph of a function under given situations.
