integral from 0 to 5 of 1/(x^2+25)

\int_{0}^{5} \frac{1}{x ^{2} + 25} d x

\frac{π}{20}

Decimal

0.15707 \dots

Solution steps

\int_{0}^{5} \frac{1}{x ^{2} + 25} d x

Apply Integral Substitution

= \int_{0}^{1} \frac{1}{5 ( u ^{2} + 1 )} d u

Take the constant out:

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

= \frac{1}{5} \cdot \int_{0}^{1} \frac{1}{u ^{2} + 1} d u

Use the common integral:

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

= \frac{1}{5} [arctan (u)]_{0}^{1}

Compute the boundaries:

\frac{π}{4}

= \frac{1}{5} \cdot \frac{π}{4}

Simplify

= \frac{π}{20}
