Evaluate the integrals in Exercises 67–74 in terms of
b. natural logarithms.
67. ∫(from 0 to 2√3)dx/√(4+x²)

Guida verificata passo dopo passo
1
Recognize that the integral is of the form \(\int \frac{dx}{\sqrt{a^2 + x^2}}\), where \(a = 2\) in this case.
Recall the standard integral formula: \(\int \frac{dx}{\sqrt{a^2 + x^2}} = \ln \left| x + \sqrt{x^2 + a^2} \right| + C\).
Apply the definite integral limits from \(0\) to \(2\sqrt{3}\), so write the expression as \(\left[ \ln \left( x + \sqrt{x^2 + 4} \right) \right]_0^{2\sqrt{3}}\).
Evaluate the expression at the upper limit \(x = 2\sqrt{3}\) and at the lower limit \(x = 0\) separately.
Subtract the value at the lower limit from the value at the upper limit to get the final answer in terms of natural logarithms.

Definition of the Definite Integral

Integration of Functions Involving √(a² + x²)

Integrals of the form ∫dx/√(a² + x²) often use trigonometric substitution or recognize standard integral formulas. The antiderivative typically involves inverse hyperbolic functions or natural logarithms, such as ln|x + √(x² + a²)|.
