fractional decomposition
\[\int\limits \frac{ x^{3}-2x^{2}-3x+1 }{ x^{2}+4x+5 }dx\]
first do long division
I did divided the polynomials and got\[\int\limits x-6+\frac{ 16x+31 }{ x^{2}+4x+5 }\]
my problem is I dont know how to progress from here
@perl
ok so the difficulty is integrating (16x +31) / (x^2+4x + 5)
yes I tried to get in a form for arctan but splitting it after I didnt see what I could do still\[\int\limits x-6+\frac{ 16x+31 }{ (x+2)^2+1^2 }\]
we can rewrite the numerator
16x + 31 = 8(2x + 4) - 1
ok
and from there split it and u sub?
\[\int\limits\limits x-6+\frac{ 16x+31 }{ x^{2}+4x+5 } =\int\limits\limits x-6+\frac{ 8(2x+4) }{ x^{2}+4x+5 } -\frac{1}{x^{2}+4x+5} \]
right, and you can complete the square for the last term
?
oh ok. Thank you for all your help.
\[\int\limits\limits \frac{ x^{3}-2x^{2}-3x+1 }{ x^{2}+4x+5 }dx \\= \int\limits\limits x-6+\frac{ 16x+31 }{ x^{2}+4x+5 } \\ =\int\limits\limits x-6+\frac{ 8(2x+4)-1 }{ x^{2}+4x+5} \\=\int\limits\limits x-6+\frac{ 8(2x+4) }{ x^{2}+4x+5} -\frac{1}{x^{2}+4x+5} \\ =\int\limits\limits x-6+\frac{ 8(2x+4) }{ x^{2}+4x+5 } -\frac{1}{(x+2)^2+1} \]
