integral of 1/(4+(x-2)^2)

\int \frac{1}{4 + ( x - 2 ) ^{2}} d x

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

Solution steps

\int \frac{1}{4 + ( x - 2 ) ^{2}} 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 = arctan (v)

= \frac{1}{2} arctan (v)

Substitute back

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

Add a constant to the solution

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