Theorem
- $\ds \int x^m \sinh^{-1} \frac x a \rd x = \frac {x^{m + 1} } {m + 1} \sinh^{-1} \frac x a - \frac 1 {m + 1} \int \frac {x^{m + 1} } {\sqrt {x^2 + a^2} } \rd x + C$
Proof
With a view to expressing the primitive in the form:
- $\ds \int u \frac {\d v} {\d x} \rd x = u v - \int v \frac {\d u} {\d x} \rd x$
let:
\(\ds u\) | \(=\) | \(\ds \sinh^{-1} \frac x a\) | ||||||||||||
\(\ds \leadsto \ \ \) | \(\ds \frac {\d u} {\d x}\) | \(=\) | \(\ds \frac 1 {\sqrt {x^2 + a^2} }\) | Derivative of $\sinh^{-1} \dfrac x a$ |
and let:
\(\ds \frac {\d v} {\d x}\) | \(=\) | \(\ds x^m\) | ||||||||||||
\(\ds \leadsto \ \ \) | \(\ds v\) | \(=\) | \(\ds \frac {x^{m + 1} } {m + 1}\) | Primitive of Power |
Then:
\(\ds \int \frac {\sinh^{-1} \dfrac x a \rd x} {x^2}\) | \(=\) | \(\ds \paren {\sinh^{-1} \frac x a} \paren {\frac {x^{m + 1} } {m + 1} } - \int \paren {\frac {x^{m + 1} } {m + 1} } \paren {\frac 1 {\sqrt {x^2 + a^2} } } \rd x + C\) | Integration by Parts | |||||||||||
\(\ds \) | \(=\) | \(\ds \frac {x^{m + 1} } {m + 1} \sinh^{-1} \frac x a - \frac 1 {m + 1} \int \frac {x^{m + 1} } {\sqrt {x^2 + a^2} } \rd x + C\) | simplifying |
$\blacksquare$
