integral from 1 to 2 of x/(1+x^4)

\int_{1}^{2} \frac{x}{1 + x ^{4}} d x

\frac{1}{2} arctan (4) - \frac{π}{8}

Decimal

0.27020 \dots

Solution steps

\int_{1}^{2} \frac{x}{1 + x ^{4}} d x

Compute the indefinite integral:

\int \frac{x}{1 + x ^{4}} d x = \frac{1}{2} arctan (x^{2}) + C

Compute the boundaries:

\int_{1}^{2} \frac{x}{1 + x ^{4}} d x = \frac{1}{2} arctan (4) - \frac{π}{8}

= \frac{1}{2} arctan (4) - \frac{π}{8}
