Integrate

OpenStudy (dls):

\[\Huge \int\limits_{}^{} \frac{\sqrt{16+(logx)^2}}{x}dx\]

OpenStudy (dls):

Attempt: Let \(16+(logx)^2=t\) \[dx=\frac{xdt}{2logx}\] \[\LARGE\int\limits\limits_{}^{} \frac{\sqrt{t}}{ \cancel{x}}\frac{\cancel{x}dt}{2logx}=\frac{1}{2}\int\limits_{}^{} \frac{\sqrt{t}dt}{\sqrt{t-16}}=\int\limits_{}^{}\sqrt{\frac{t}{t-16}}dt\]

just a try..:/

OpenStudy (dls):

umm @zepdrix

zepdrix (zepdrix):

I think what you want to do is let \(\large t=\ln x\) then, \(\large dt=\dfrac{1}{x}\) Giving us,\[\large \int\limits\frac{\sqrt{16+(logx)^2}}{x}dx \qquad=\qquad \int\limits \sqrt{16+t^2}\quad dt\]From here we can do a trig sub i suppose.

zepdrix (zepdrix):

\(\large dt=\dfrac{1}{x}dx\) bah i forgot the dx when i wrote that :\

OpenStudy (anonymous):

assuming that your trail is correct , I complete by substituting \[t=16\sec ^{2}u\] and it will develop to \[\int\limits\limits_{}^{}32\sec^2(u) du\] which is 32tan(u)+c still you have to find t in terms of u and blah blah blah.
