Question
Evaluate the following integrals:$\int\frac{\text{x}}{\sqrt{\text{x}^4+\text{a}^4}}\text{ dx}$

Answer

$\int\frac{\text{x}\text{ dx}}{\sqrt{\text{x}^4+\text{a}^4}}$ $\int\frac{\text{x}\text{ dx}}{\sqrt{(\text{x}^2)^2+(\text{a}^2)^2}}$ Let $\text{x}^2=\text{t}$ $\Rightarrow2\text{x}\text{ dx}=\text{dt}$ $\Rightarrow\text{x}\text{ dx}=\frac{\text{dt}}{2}$Now, $\int\frac{\text{x}\text{ dx}}{\sqrt{(\text{x}^2)^2+(\text{a}^2)^2}}$
$=\frac{1}{2}\int\frac{\text{x}\text{ dx}}{\sqrt{{\text{t}^2+(\text{a}^2)^2}}}$
$=\frac{1}{2}\log\Big|\text{t}+\sqrt{\text{t}^2+\text{a}^4}\Big|+\text{C}$
$=\frac{1}{2}\log\Big|\text{x}^2+\sqrt{\text{x}^4+\text{a}^4}\Big|+\text{C}$
