Question
Evaluate the following integrals:
$\int\frac{\text{x}^2\text{dx}}{\text{x}^6-\text{a}^6}\text{dx}$

Answer

$\int\frac{\text{x}^2\text{dx}}{\text{x}^6-\text{a}^6}$
Let $\text{x}^3=\text{t}$
$\Rightarrow3\text{x}^2\text{dx = dt}$
$\Rightarrow\text{x}^2\text{dx}=\frac{\text{dt}}{3}$
Now, $\int\frac{\text{x}^2\text{dx}}{\text{x}^6-\text{a}^6}$
$=\frac{1}{3}\int\frac{\text{dt}}{\text{t}^2-(\text{a}^3)^2}$
$=\frac{1}{3}\times\frac{1}{2\text{a}^3}\log\bigg|\frac{\text{t}-\text{a}^3}{\text{t}+\text{a}^3}\Big|+\text{C}$
$=\frac{1}{6\text{a}^3}\log\Big|\frac{\text{x}^3-\text{a}^3}{\text{x}^3+\text{a}^3}\Big|+\text{C}$
