integral of ((1-x))/(x^2+1)

\int \frac{( 1 - x )}{x ^{2} + 1} d x

arctan (x) - \frac{1}{2} ln x^{2} + 1 + C

Solution steps

\int \frac{1 - x}{x ^{2} + 1} d x

Expand

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

Apply the Sum Rule:

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

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

\int \frac{1}{x ^{2} + 1} d x = arctan (x)

\int \frac{x}{x ^{2} + 1} d x = \frac{1}{2} ln x^{2} + 1

= arctan (x) - \frac{1}{2} ln x^{2} + 1

Add a constant to the solution

= arctan (x) - \frac{1}{2} ln x^{2} + 1 + C
