\(a\log\left|\frac{x+a}{x}\right|+C\)
$a$ \(\log\left|\frac{x}{x+a}\right|+C\)
Let \(I=\int\left(\frac{x-a}{x}-\frac{x}{x+a}\right) d x\)
\(=\int \frac{\left(x^{2}-a^{2}\right)-x^{2}}{x(x+a)} d x\)
\(=-a^{2} \int \frac{1}{x(x+a)} d x\)
\(=\frac{-a^{2}}{a} \int\left[\frac{1}{x}-\frac{1}{x+a}\right] d x\)
\(=-a \log \left|\frac{x}{x+a}\right|+C\)
\(=a \log \left|\frac{x+a}{x}\right|+C\)
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.
These are tabulated below along with the meaning of each part.
