The value of the integral \(\int \frac{2 x}{\left(x^2+1\right)\left(x^2+2\right)} d x\) is:

  1. A \(\log \left|x^2+1\right|+\log \left|x^2+2\right|+C\)
  2. B \(2 \log \left|x^2+1\right|-2 \log \left|x^2+2\right|+C\)
  3. C \(\log \left|\frac{x^2+1}{x^2+2}\right|+C\)
  4. D \(\log \left|\frac{x^2+2}{x^2+1}\right|+C\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) \(\log \left|\frac{x^2+1}{x^2+2}\right|+C\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Let \(u = x^2\). Then \(du = 2x \, dx\). \(\int \frac{1}{(u+1)(u+2)} du = \int \left(\frac{1}{u+1} - \frac{1}{u+2}\right) du\) \(= \log|u+1| - \log|u+2| + C\) \(= \log|x^2+1| - \log|x^2+2| + C\) \(= \log \left|\frac{x^2+1}{x^2+2}\right|+C\)
