Class 12 Maths · Integrals · Conceptual Answer #133

Evaluate \(\int \frac{1}{x^{2} + 16}\,dx\). Work on each connected open interval where the real integrand is defined.

✅ Step-by-Step Solution

Final Answer: \(\frac{\operatorname{atan}{\left(\frac{x}{4} \right)}}{4}\) + C
  1. Let u=x/4, dx=4du. Then I=(1/4)∫du/(1+u²)=(1/4)arctan u+C.
  2. Therefore the required integral is \(\frac{\operatorname{atan}{\left(\frac{x}{4} \right)}}{4}\) + C.
