Question

Integrate the function `1/sqrt(1+4x^2)`

Sum

Solution

Let `I = int 1/sqrt(1 + 4x^2)  dx`

`= 1/2 int dx/sqrt(1/4 + x)`

`= 1/2 int dx/sqrt((1/2)^2 + x^2)`

`= 1/2 log abs (x sqrt(1/4 +x^2)) C_1`

       .....`[because int dx/sqrt(x^2 + a^2) = log abs (x + sqrt(x^2 + a^2)) + C]`

`= 1/2 log abs ((2x + sqrt(1 + 4x^2))/2) + C_1`

`= 1/2 log abs (2x + sqrt(1 + 4x^2)) - 1/2 log 2 + C_1`

`= 1/2 log |2x + sqrt 1 + 4x^2| + C`       .... [`C = -1/2 log 2 + C_1`]
