How to evaluate this definite integral?? \[ \frac{64}{\pi^3} \int_0^\infty \frac{ (\ln x)^2 (15-2x)}{(x^4+1)(x^2+1)}\ dx \] http://www.wolframalpha.com/input/?i=64%2Fpi^3+*+integrate+from+0+to+infinity+%28ln+x%29^2+%2815-2x%29%2F%28%28x^4%2B1%29%28x^2%2B1%29%29

OpenStudy (australopithecus):

Try integration by parts

OpenStudy (anonymous):

maybe .. but very difficult for me.

OpenStudy (australopithecus):

do you not know how to do integration by parts?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

no sorry ... could you help me please??

OpenStudy (australopithecus):

Nvm integration by parts wouldn't work to my knowledge I think you are going to need someone with a greater understanding of integrals to help you @satellite73 @KingGeorge

OpenStudy (anonymous):

thank you :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

one method is letting \(\ln x=t\) and representing integrand by series... @experimentX come here my friend

OpenStudy (experimentx):

huh?

OpenStudy (experimentx):

we need something that converges between 0 and infinity http://www.wolframalpha.com/input/?i=expand+%28ln+x%29^2+%2815-2x%29%2F%28%28x^4%2B1%29%28x^2%2B1%29%29+at+x%3D1

OpenStudy (experimentx):

need something like |dw:1345610604780:dw| ... let's see what series has closed value of pi^3
