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

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

- ln x^{2} + 1 + x + C

Solution steps

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

Take the constant out:

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

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

Use the common integral:

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

= - ln x^{2} + 1 + x

Add a constant to the solution

= - ln x^{2} + 1 + x + C
