\[\frac{ 1 }{ (x^{2}+3)^{\frac{ 3 }{ 2 }} } dx\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

can you think of a neat trig substitution?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

here is one hint: \[\Large x=\sqrt{3}\tan\alpha \]

mathslover (mathslover):

let x = \(\sqrt{3}\tan t \) what will be dx now?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

there we go ^^

mathslover (mathslover):

@KatClaire are you getting me?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

sorry I had to leave for a minute. so a would be equal to sqrt(3)? and u being x? @mathslover

OpenStudy (anonymous):

for \[\frac{ 1 }{ a^{2}+u^{2} }\]

mathslover (mathslover):

dx = \(\sqrt{3} \sec^2 t dt\)
