NCERT Class 12 Maths · Chapter 7 Integrals · Exercise 7.4 Question 18

Evaluate \(\int \frac{5 x - 2}{3 x^{2} + 2 x + 1}\, dx\).

💡 Concept Hints

  1. Identify the domain and the inner and outer functions, or the relevant one-sided limits.
  2. Apply the appropriate differentiation or limit rule, keep all chain factors, and check exceptional points.

✅ Step-by-Step Solution

Final Answer: \(\frac{5 \log{\left(\left|{3 x^{2} + 2 x + 1}\right| \right)}}{6} - \frac{11 \sqrt{2} \operatorname{atan}{\left(\frac{\sqrt{2} \left(3 x + 1\right)}{2} \right)}}{6}\) + C.
  1. Work on each open interval where the integrand is real and defined.
  2. Write 5x−2=(5/6)(6x+2)−11/3. For the remainder, complete the square 3x²+2x+1=[(3x+1)²+2]/3.
  3. An antiderivative is F(x)=\(\frac{5 \log{\left(\left|{3 x^{2} + 2 x + 1}\right| \right)}}{6} - \frac{11 \sqrt{2} \operatorname{atan}{\left(\frac{\sqrt{2} \left(3 x + 1\right)}{2} \right)}}{6}\).
  4. Differentiate this expression to check that F′(x)=\(\frac{5 x - 2}{3 x^{2} + 2 x + 1}\). Add an arbitrary constant C on each domain component.
