Calculating $int frac{dx}{(x^2+1)^3}$ integral












2












$begingroup$


Would anyone help me calculate the following integral? $int frac{dx}{(x^2+1)^3}$



During our lecutre we've done very similiar one, $int frac{dx}{(x^2+1)^2}$ like that:



$int frac{dx}{(x^2+1)^2} = int frac{x^2+1-x^2}{(x^2+1)^2}dx = int frac{1}{x^2+1}dx - int frac{x^2}{(x^2+1)^2}dx = $



$= Biggrrvert begin{equation}
begin{split}
& u = x quad v' =frac{x}{(x^2+1)^2} =frac{1(x^2+1)'}{2(x^2+1)^2}\
& u' = 1 quad v = -frac{1}{2} frac{1}{x^2+1}
end{split}
end{equation} Biggrrvert$



$= arctan x - (-xfrac{1}{2}frac{1}{x^2+1} + frac{1}{2} int frac{dx}{x^2+1})$



$= arctan x + frac{x}{2(x^2+1)} - frac{1}{2}arctan x + C = frac{1}{2}arctan x + frac{x}{2(x^2+1)} + C$



Thank you.

          We will find a general reduction formula for the integral
          $$I_n=intfrac{dx}{(ax^2+b)^n}$$
          Integration by parts with
          $$dv=dxRightarrow v=x\ u=frac1{(ax^2+b)^n}Rightarrow du=frac{-2anx}{(ax^2+b)^{n+1}}dx$$
          Yields
          $$I_n=frac{x}{(ax^2+b)^n}+2nintfrac{ax^2}{(ax^2+b)^{n+1}}dx$$
          $$I_n=frac{x}{(ax^2+b)^n}+2nintfrac{ax^2+b}{(ax^2+b)^{n+1}}dx-2bnintfrac{dx}{(ax^2+b)^{n+1}}$$
          $$I_n=frac{x}{(ax^2+b)^n}+2nintfrac{dx}{(ax^2+b)^{n}}-2bnI_{n+1}$$
          $$I_n=frac{x}{(ax^2+b)^n}+2nI_n-2bnI_{n+1}$$
          $$2bnI_{n+1}=frac{x}{(ax^2+b)^n}+(2n-1)I_n$$
          $$I_{n+1}=frac{x}{2bn(ax^2+b)^n}+frac{2n-1}{2bn}I_n$$
          replacing $n+1$ with $n$,
          $$I_{n}=frac{x}{2b(n-1)(ax^2+b)^{n-1}}+frac{2n-3}{2b(n-1)}I_{n-1}$$
          Now for the base case $I_1$:
          $$I_1=intfrac{dx}{ax^2+b}$$
          Let $$x=sqrt{frac{b}a}tan uRightarrow dx=sqrt{frac{b}a}sec^2u, du$$
          So $$I_1=sqrt{frac{b}a}intfrac{sec^2u}{btan^2u+b}du$$
          $$I_1=frac1{sqrt{ab}}intfrac{sec^2u}{sec^2u}du$$
          $$I_1=frac1{sqrt{ab}}int du$$
          $$I_1=frac{u}{sqrt{ab}}$$
          $$I_1=frac1{sqrt{ab}}arctansqrt{frac{a}{b}}x+C$$
          Plug in your specific $a,b$ and $n$, and you're good to go.





          Edit: Whatever I'll just give you the answer.



          Plugging in $a=1, b=1, n=3$ we have
          $$I_{3}=frac{x}{4(x^2+1)^{2}}+frac{3}{4}I_{2}$$
          Note that
          $$I_{2}=frac{x}{2(x^2+1)}+frac{1}{2}I_{1}$$
          $$I_{2}=frac{x}{2(x^2+1)}+frac{1}{2}arctan x+C$$
          So
          $$I_{3}=frac{x}{4(x^2+1)^{2}}+frac{3x}{8(x^2+1)}+frac{3}{8}arctan x+C$$

            So why not use the same trick? Since you know from lecture what $$f_2(x) = int frac{dx}{left(x^2+1right)^2}$$ is, you now have
            $$
            begin{split}
            f_3(x)
            &= int frac{dx}{left(x^2+1right)^3}\
            &= int frac{dx}{left(x^2+1right)^2} - int x cdot frac{xdx}{left(x^2+1right)^3}\
            &= f_2(x) - text{proceed by parts as before}
            end{split}
            $$

              $begingroup$

              Use $$int frac{dx}{(x^2+1)^3}=frac{x}{4(x^2+1)^2}+frac{3}{4}int frac{dx}{(x^2+1)^2}$$ and then use the value for the integral you already calculated.

                I used:



                $$p=x^2+1to dx =frac{1}{2sqrt{p-1}}$$
                which leads to:



                $$int{frac{dx}{(x^2+1)^3}=frac12 int{frac{dp}{psqrt{p-1}}}}$$
                Then the substitution $$q=sqrt{p-1}to dp=2qspace dq$$
                Leads to $$frac12intfrac{dp}{psqrt{p-1}}=frac12intfrac{2q}{q(q^2+1)}dq=intfrac{dq}{q^2+1}$$



                Which is resolved simply.

                    Plugging in $a=1, b=1, n=3$ we have
                    $$I_{3}=frac{x}{4(x^2+1)^{2}}+frac{3}{4}I_{2}$$
                    Note that
                    $$I_{2}=frac{x}{2(x^2+1)}+frac{1}{2}I_{1}$$
                    $$I_{2}=frac{x}{2(x^2+1)}+frac{1}{2}arctan x+C$$
                    So
                    $$I_{3}=frac{x}{4(x^2+1)^{2}}+frac{3x}{8(x^2+1)}+frac{3}{8}arctan x+C$$

                      We will find a general reduction formula for the integral
                      $$I_n=intfrac{dx}{(ax^2+b)^n}$$
                      Integration by parts with
                      $$dv=dxRightarrow v=x\ u=frac1{(ax^2+b)^n}Rightarrow du=frac{-2anx}{(ax^2+b)^{n+1}}dx$$
                      Yields
                      $$I_n=frac{x}{(ax^2+b)^n}+2nintfrac{ax^2}{(ax^2+b)^{n+1}}dx$$
                      $$I_n=frac{x}{(ax^2+b)^n}+2nintfrac{ax^2+b}{(ax^2+b)^{n+1}}dx-2bnintfrac{dx}{(ax^2+b)^{n+1}}$$
                      $$I_n=frac{x}{(ax^2+b)^n}+2nintfrac{dx}{(ax^2+b)^{n}}-2bnI_{n+1}$$
                      $$I_n=frac{x}{(ax^2+b)^n}+2nI_n-2bnI_{n+1}$$
                      $$2bnI_{n+1}=frac{x}{(ax^2+b)^n}+(2n-1)I_n$$
                      $$I_{n+1}=frac{x}{2bn(ax^2+b)^n}+frac{2n-1}{2bn}I_n$$
                      replacing $n+1$ with $n$,
                      $$I_{n}=frac{x}{2b(n-1)(ax^2+b)^{n-1}}+frac{2n-3}{2b(n-1)}I_{n-1}$$
                      Now for the base case $I_1$:
                      $$I_1=intfrac{dx}{ax^2+b}$$
                      Let $$x=sqrt{frac{b}a}tan uRightarrow dx=sqrt{frac{b}a}sec^2u, du$$
                      So $$I_1=sqrt{frac{b}a}intfrac{sec^2u}{btan^2u+b}du$$
                      $$I_1=frac1{sqrt{ab}}intfrac{sec^2u}{sec^2u}du$$
                      $$I_1=frac1{sqrt{ab}}int du$$
                      $$I_1=frac{u}{sqrt{ab}}$$
                      $$I_1=frac1{sqrt{ab}}arctansqrt{frac{a}{b}}x+C$$
                      Plug in your specific $a,b$ and $n$, and you're good to go.

                          So why not use the same trick? Since you know from lecture what $$f_2(x) = int frac{dx}{left(x^2+1right)^2}$$ is, you now have
                          $$
                          begin{split}

                                          Then the substitution $$q=sqrt{p-1}to dp=2qspace dq$$
                                          Leads to $$frac12intfrac{dp}{psqrt{p-1}}=frac12intfrac{2q}{q(q^2+1)}dq=intfrac{dq}{q^2+1}$$



                                          Which is resolved simply.
