integral of 1/(sqrt(-t^2+8t-7))

\int \frac{1}{- t ^{2} + 8 t - 7} d t

arcsin (\frac{1}{3} (t - 4)) + C

Solution steps

\int \frac{1}{- t ^{2} + 8 t - 7} d t

Complete the square

- t^{2} + 8 t - 7 : - (t - 4)^{2} + 9

= \int \frac{1}{- ( t - 4 ) ^{2} + 9} d t

Apply u-substitution

= \int \frac{1}{- u ^{2} + 9} d u

Apply Trigonometric Substitution

= \int 1 d v

Integral of a constant:

\int a d x = a x

= 1 \cdot v

Substitute back

= 1 \cdot arcsin (\frac{1}{3} (t - 4))

Simplify

= arcsin (\frac{1}{3} (t - 4))

Add a constant to the solution

= arcsin (\frac{1}{3} (t - 4)) + C
