1. integrate (1-2x) / x^2 + 2x + 3 dx
2. integrate square root [ (x-1) / (x+1) ] dx

thanksssssss:(

Dang, beat me to it. Although the second question has a whole square root involved.

for the first question, wht happen if the limit is 0 to 4?
coz when u sub it in i cant get the answer ;(
the answer is -4 square root 3 + 3 ln ( 5+3sqrt3 / 1+3sqrt3)
thanks againn

its just one where u have the derivative on top and the function on the bottom

and then the 2 and a half cancel out in the process


....lol i explained that real bad...sorry!

how did u get the middle part?
what is [ tan^-1 (5/sqrt2) - tan^-1 (1/sqrt2) ] ?

Let phi = tan^-1 (5/sqr(2) ) - tan^-1(1/sqr(2))

Therefore: tan(phi) = [tan (tan^-1(5/(sqr2) - tan(tan^-1(1/sqr2)] / [ 1 + tan (tan^-1(5/sqr(2)) ) x tan(tan^-1(1/sqr 2))]

= [5/sqr 2 - 1 / sqr 2] / [ 1 + 5/sqr 2 x 1/sqr 2 ]

= 4/sqr 2 / (7/2) = 4 sqr 2 / 7

Therefore phi = tan^-1 (4 sqr 2)/7
