integral of (cos(x))/(4-sin^2(x))

\int \frac{cos ( x )}{4 - sin ^{2} ( x )} d x

\frac{1}{4} (ln \frac{sin ( x )}{2} + 1 - ln \frac{sin ( x )}{2} - 1) + C

Solution steps

\int \frac{cos ( x )}{4 - sin ^{2} ( x )} d x

Apply u-substitution

= \int \frac{1}{4 - u ^{2}} d u

Apply Integral Substitution

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

Take the constant out:

\int a \cdot f (x) d x = a \cdot \int f (x) d x

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

Use the common integral:

\int \frac{1}{- v ^{2} + 1} d v = \frac{ln ∣ v + 1 ∣}{2} - \frac{ln ∣ v - 1 ∣}{2}

= \frac{1}{2} (\frac{ln ∣ v + 1 ∣}{2} - \frac{ln ∣ v - 1 ∣}{2})

Substitute back

= \frac{1}{2} \frac{ln \frac{s i n ( x )}{2} + 1}{2} - \frac{ln \frac{s i n ( x )}{2} - 1}{2}

Simplify

\frac{1}{2} \frac{ln \frac{s i n ( x )}{2} + 1}{2} - \frac{ln \frac{s i n ( x )}{2} - 1}{2} : \frac{1}{4} (ln \frac{sin ( x )}{2} + 1 - ln \frac{sin ( x )}{2} - 1)

= \frac{1}{4} (ln \frac{sin ( x )}{2} + 1 - ln \frac{sin ( x )}{2} - 1)

Add a constant to the solution

= \frac{1}{4} (ln \frac{sin ( x )}{2} + 1 - ln \frac{sin ( x )}{2} - 1) + C
