Step 1: Simplify the integrand. Notice that the denominator can be factored as x²(x² + 1). Rewrite the integrand as (x² / (x²(x² + 1))) = 1 / (x² + 1).
Step 2: Recognize that the simplified integrand, 1 / (x² + 1), resembles the derivative of the arctangent function. Recall that the derivative of arctan(x) is 1 / (1 + x²).
Step 3: Adjust the integrand to match the standard form. In this case, the integrand is already in the form 1 / (x² + 1), which corresponds directly to the derivative of arctan(x).
Step 4: Integrate the simplified function. The integral of 1 / (x² + 1) is arctan(x) + C, where C is the constant of integration.
Step 5: Write the final expression for the indefinite integral as ∫ (x² / (x⁴ + x²)) dx = arctan(x) + C.

Indefinite Integrals

Indefinite integrals represent a family of functions whose derivative is the integrand. They are expressed without limits and include a constant of integration, typically denoted as 'C'. The process of finding an indefinite integral is often referred to as antidifferentiation, and it is fundamental in calculus for solving problems related to area under curves and accumulation functions.
