Find: ∫ (√ x)/((x+1)(x-1)) d x
Find : \[\int \frac{\sqrt{x}}{(x+1)(x-1)} d x \]
Marking-scheme solution
$$\begin{aligned}
& I=\int \frac{\sqrt{x}}{(x+1)(x-1)} d x \\
& \begin{aligned}
& \sqrt{x}=t \text { gives } I=\int \frac{2 t^{2}}{\left(t^{2}+1\right)\left(t^{2}-1\right)} d t \\
& \text { Let } \frac{2 t^{2}}{\left(t^{2}+1\right)\left(t^{2}-1\right)}=\frac{2 z}{(z+1)(z-1)} ; \text { where } t^{2}=z \\
& \text { we have } \frac{2 z}{(z+1)(z-1)}=\frac{1}{z+1}+\frac{1}{z-1} \\
& \Rightarrow I=\int \frac{1}{t^{2}+1} d t+\int \frac{1}{t^{2}-1} d t \\
&=\tan ^{-1} t+\frac{1}{2} \log \left|\frac{t-1}{t+1}\right|+c \\
&=\tan ^{-1} \sqrt{x}+\frac{1}{2} \log \left|\frac{\sqrt{x}-1}{\sqrt{x}+1}\right|+c
