\(\frac{1}{2}(x-4)\sqrt{x^2-8x+7}-\frac{9}{2}log\mid x-4+\sqrt{x^2-8x+7}\mid+C\)
The Correct Option is D
Solution and Explanation
Let \(I=\int\sqrt{x^2-8x+7}dx\)
=\(\int \sqrt{(x^2-8x+16)-9}dx\)
=\(\int\sqrt{(x-4)^2-(3)^2}dx\)
It is known that,\(\int\sqrt{x^2-a^2}dx=\frac{x}{2}\sqrt{x^2-a^2}-\frac{a^2}{2}\log\mid x+\sqrt{x^2-a^2}\mid+C\)
∴\(I=\frac{(x-4)}{2}\sqrt{x^2-8x+7}-\frac{9}{2}\log\mid (x-4)+\sqrt{x^2-8x+7}\mid+C\)
Hence, the correct answer is D.

Integrals of Some Particular Functions
There are many important integration formulas which are applied to integrate many other standard integrals. In this article, we will take a look at the integrals of these particular functions and see how they are used in several other standard integrals.
Integrals of Some Particular Functions:
