integral from 0 to 2 of 1/(sqrt(4+x^2))

\int_{0}^{2} \frac{1}{4 + x ^{2}} d x

ln (1 + 2)

Decimal

0.88137 \dots

Solution steps

\int_{0}^{2} \frac{1}{4 + x ^{2}} d x

Apply Trigonometric Substitution

= \int_{0}^{\frac{π}{4}} sec (u) d u

Use the common integral:

\int sec (u) d u = ln ∣ tan (u) + sec (u) ∣

= [ln ∣ tan (u) + sec (u) ∣]_{0}^{\frac{π}{4}}

Compute the boundaries:

ln (1 + 2)

= ln (1 + 2)
