I am trying to solve this integral. Any help would be great.

I 5/(3+4sinx)

I tried suddinb t=tan x/2 but it gives me a result of:

=5 I (1+x^2)/(3+11x)

I am not sure what to do with this or if this is the right emthod any help would be great.

Thanks

Using I for integration sign.

Hi CaspianTiger! :smile:

(have an integral: ∫ :wink:)

Are you sure (1+t2)dt/(3+11t) is right?

Anyway, then you use long division and/or partial fractions. :wink:

Hmm... I am not sure if this is right. I am just following a method from a book. But it doesn't have an example like this one.

Usually with these problems from the book, you have to use ∫1/x^2+or-a^2

To get the result (1+t2)dt/(3+11t)

I made 3+4sinx = 3+ 8t/(1+t^2)

Then i add them and put them back into the integral. Usually i have a t^2 in the denominator. SO i am confused by this one. The wolf integrator has an insane answer though.

(just got up :zzz:)

ah, but 3+ 8t/(1+t2) = (3+ 8t + 3t2)/(1+t2) :wink:
 
Greetings,
I'm not so good in integrations, but I tryed to solve it with Mathematica, and I got this answer

(5 I (121 x^2-66 x+260 log(11 x+3)-27))/2662

Hopefully it can help.

What a stupid mistake.

Thanks.
 
Prove $$\int\limits_0^{\sqrt2/4}\frac{1}{\sqrt{x-x^2}}\arcsin\sqrt{\frac{(x-1)\left(x-1+x\sqrt{9-16x}\right)}{1-2x}} \, \mathrm dx = \frac{\pi^2}{8}.$$ Let $$I = \int\limits_0^{\sqrt 2 / 4}\frac{1}{\sqrt{x-x^2}}\arcsin\sqrt{\frac{(x-1)\left(x-1+x\sqrt{9-16x}\right)}{1-2x}} \, \mathrm dx. \tag{1}$$ The representation integral of ##\arcsin## is $$\arcsin u = \int\limits_{0}^{1} \frac{\mathrm dt}{\sqrt{1-t^2}}, \qquad 0 \leqslant u \leqslant 1.$$ Plugging identity above into ##(1)## with ##u...
