### Difficult Problems

1

Solved example of integration by trigonometric substitution

$\int\sqrt{x^2+4}dx$
2

Solve the integral $\int\sqrt{x^2+4}dx$ by trigonometric substitution using the substitution

$\begin{matrix}x=2\tan\left(\theta \right) \\ dx=2\sec\left(\theta \right)^2d\theta\end{matrix}$
3

Substituting in the original integral, we get

$\int2\sqrt{4\tan\left(\theta \right)^2+4}\sec\left(\theta \right)^2d\theta$
4

Factor by the greatest common divisor $4$

$\int2\sqrt{4\left(\tan\left(\theta \right)^2+1\right)}\sec\left(\theta \right)^2d\theta$
5

The power of a product is equal to the product of it's factors raised to the same power

$\int4\sqrt{\tan\left(\theta \right)^2+1}\sec\left(\theta \right)^2d\theta$

Applying the trigonometric identity: $\tan(x)^2+1=\sec(x)^2$

$\int4\sqrt{\sec\left(\theta \right)^2}\sec\left(\theta \right)^2d\theta$

When multiplying exponents with same base you can add the exponents

$\int4\sec\left(\theta \right)^{3}d\theta$
6

Simplifying

$\int4\sec\left(\theta \right)^{3}d\theta$
7

The integral of a constant by a function is equal to the constant multiplied by the integral of the function

$4\int\sec\left(\theta \right)^{3}d\theta$
8

Simplify the integral of secant applying the reduction formula, $\displaystyle\int\sec(x)^{n}dx=\frac{\sin(x)\sec(x)^{n-1}}{n-1}+\frac{n-2}{n-1}\int\sec(x)^{n-2}dx$

$4\left(\frac{\sin\left(\theta \right)\sec\left(\theta \right)^{2}}{2}+\frac{1}{2}\int\sec\left(\theta \right)d\theta\right)$
9

Solve the product $4\left(\frac{\sin\left(\theta \right)\sec\left(\theta \right)^{2}}{2}+\frac{1}{2}\int\sec\left(\theta \right)d\theta\right)$

$4\frac{\sin\left(\theta \right)\sec\left(\theta \right)^{2}}{2}+2\int\sec\left(\theta \right)d\theta$
10

Simplify the fraction

$2\sin\left(\theta \right)\sec\left(\theta \right)^{2}+2\int\sec\left(\theta \right)d\theta$

The integral of the secant function is given by the following formula, $\displaystyle\int\sec(x)dx=\ln\left|\sec(x)+\tan(x)\right|$

$2\ln\left|\sec\left(\theta \right)+\tan\left(\theta \right)\right|$

Expressing the result of the integral in terms of the original variable

$2\ln\left|\frac{\sqrt{x^2+4}}{2}+\frac{x}{2}\right|$

Add fraction's numerators with common denominators: $\frac{\sqrt{x^2+4}}{2}$ and $\frac{x}{2}$

$2\ln\left|\frac{\sqrt{x^2+4}+x}{2}\right|$
11

The integral $2\int\sec\left(\theta \right)d\theta$ results in: $2\ln\left|\frac{\sqrt{x^2+4}+x}{2}\right|$

$2\ln\left|\frac{\sqrt{x^2+4}+x}{2}\right|$
12

After gathering the results of all integrals, the final answer is

$2\sin\left(\theta \right)\sec\left(\theta \right)^{2}+2\ln\left|\frac{\sqrt{x^2+4}+x}{2}\right|$

Applying the power of a power property

$\frac{2x\left(x^2+4\right)}{4\sqrt{x^2+4}}+2\ln\left|\frac{\sqrt{x^2+4}+x}{2}\right|$

Simplify the fraction by $x^2+4$

$\frac{2x\sqrt{x^2+4}}{4}+2\ln\left|\frac{\sqrt{x^2+4}+x}{2}\right|$
13

Expressing the result of the integral in terms of the original variable

$\frac{2x\sqrt{x^2+4}}{4}+2\ln\left|\frac{\sqrt{x^2+4}+x}{2}\right|$
14

Take $\frac{2}{4}$ out of the fraction

$\frac{1}{2}x\sqrt{x^2+4}+2\ln\left|\frac{\sqrt{x^2+4}+x}{2}\right|$
15

As the integral that we are solving is an indefinite integral, when we finish we must add the constant of integration

$\frac{1}{2}x\sqrt{x^2+4}+2\ln\left|\frac{\sqrt{x^2+4}+x}{2}\right|+C_0$

$\frac{1}{2}x\sqrt{x^2+4}+2\ln\left|\frac{\sqrt{x^2+4}+x}{2}\right|+C_0$
