Example 1 A Comparison of Three Similar Integrals


Find each integral.

Example 1(a) Solution


Use the arctangent Rule and let u = x and a = 3.

Example 1(b) Solution


Here the arctangent Rule does not apply because the numerator contains a factor of x.

Consider the Log Rule and let u = x2 + 9.


Then du = 2xdx, and you have

Example 1(c) Solution


Because the degree of the numerator is equal to the degree of the denominator, you should first use division to rewrite the improper rational function as the sum of a polynomial and a proper rational function.
