i already started with trig sub

OpenStudy (adamaero):

good, that's what I was thinking at a glance

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Im working through it now because after i posted the question i realized i left something out

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok nvm i got it haha thanks for responding though

OpenStudy (jhannybean):

this is precisely a trig sub. particular sin(x) sub.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[I=\int\limits \frac{ 1 }{ t^2\sqrt{t^2-25} }dt\] put\(t=1/y\) \[dt=\frac{ -1 }{ y^2 }dy\] \[I=\int\limits \frac{ \frac{ -1 }{ y^2 }dy }{ \frac{ 1 }{ y^2 } \sqrt{\frac{ 1 }{ y^2 }-25}}=\int\limits \frac{ -ydy }{ \sqrt{1-25y^2}}\] \[=-\int\limits \left( 1-25y^2 \right)^{\frac{ -1 }{ 2 }}\left( y~dy \right)=?\]
