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

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

2 arctan (x) + C

Solution steps

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

Take the constant out:

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

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

Use the common integral:

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

= 2 arctan (x)

Add a constant to the solution

= 2 arctan (x) + C
