What is the integral of (x^2)/(x^2-3x+2) ?

The integral of (x^2)/(x^2-3x+2) is x-ln|x-1|+4ln|x-2|+C

integral of (x^2)/(x^2-3x+2)

\int \frac{x ^{2}}{x ^{2} - 3 x + 2} d x

x - ln ∣ x - 1 ∣ + 4 ln ∣ x - 2 ∣ + C

Solution steps

\int \frac{x ^{2}}{x ^{2} - 3 x + 2} d x

Take the partial fraction of

\frac{x ^{2}}{x ^{2} - 3 x + 2} : 1 - \frac{1}{x - 1} + \frac{4}{x - 2}

= \int 1 - \frac{1}{x - 1} + \frac{4}{x - 2} d x

Apply the Sum Rule:

\int f (x) \pm g (x) d x = \int f (x) d x \pm \int g (x) d x

= \int 1 d x - \int \frac{1}{x - 1} d x + \int \frac{4}{x - 2} d x

\int 1 d x = x

\int \frac{1}{x - 1} d x = ln ∣ x - 1 ∣

\int \frac{4}{x - 2} d x = 4 ln ∣ x - 2 ∣

= x - ln ∣ x - 1 ∣ + 4 ln ∣ x - 2 ∣

Add a constant to the solution

= x - ln ∣ x - 1 ∣ + 4 ln ∣ x - 2 ∣ + C

d er i v a t i v e f (x) = 12

d er i v a t i v e f (x) = 3 - \frac{18}{5 x ^{\frac{1}{10}}}

d er i v a t i v e g (u) = 6 u + 5 u

\int 12 θ sec^{2} (θ) d θ

d er i v a t i v e 4 x^{2} - 2 x (- 9)
