   ›Reveal solutionSolution

   Completing the square turns $\sqrt{x^2+x+1}$ into the standard $\sqrt{u^2+a^2}$ form, whose known integral gives option (A).

   Concept and Intuition

   The standard result $\displaystyle\int\sqrt{u^2+a^2}\,du=\frac u2\sqrt{u^2+a^2}+\frac{a^2}2\,\mathrm{Sinh}^{-1}\!\left(\frac ua\right)+c$ applies to any quadratic under a square root once it's written as a perfect square plus a constant.

   Step-by-Step Solution

   1. Complete the square: $x^2+x+1=\left(x+\dfrac12\right)^2+\dfrac34$. Let $u=x+\dfrac12$, $a^2=\dfrac34$ (so $a=\dfrac{\sqrt3}2$).
   2. Apply the formula: $\displaystyle\int\sqrt{u^2+a^2}\,du=\frac u2\sqrt{u^2+a^2}+\frac{a^2}2\mathrm{Sinh}^{-1}\!\left(\frac ua\right)+c$.
   3. $\dfrac u2 = \dfrac{x+\frac12}{2}=\dfrac{2x+1}{4}$, and $\sqrt{u^2+a^2}=\sqrt{x^2+x+1}$.
   4. $\dfrac{a^2}2=\dfrac{3/4}{2}=\dfrac38$, and $\dfrac ua = \dfrac{x+\frac12}{\sqrt3/2}=\dfrac{2x+1}{\sqrt3}$. …

   ›Reveal solutionSolution

   Splitting the numerator into a multiple of the derivative of the radicand plus a constant is the standard technique for $\int\dfrac{px+q}{\sqrt{ax^2+bx+c}}dx$; here it gives $\sqrt{x^2+x+1}+\dfrac12\sinh^{-1}\left(\dfrac{2x+1}{\sqrt3}\right)+c$.

   Concept and Intuition

   For $\int\dfrac{\text{linear}}{\sqrt{\text{quadratic}}}dx$, write the linear numerator as $A\cdot(\text{derivative of quadratic})+B$. The $A$-part becomes a simple power-rule integral (since it's exactly $u^{-1/2}du$), and the $B$-part reduces to the standard $\int\dfrac{dx}{\sqrt{x^2+a^2}}=\sinh^{-1}(x/a)+c$ form after completing the square.

   Step-by-Step Solution

   1. Write $x+1=\dfrac12(2x+1)+\dfrac12$.
   2. First part: $\dfrac12\displaystyle\int\dfrac{2x+1}{\sqrt{x^2+x+1}}dx$. Let $u=x^2+x+1$, $du=(2x+1)dx$: this is $\dfrac12\int u^{-1/2}du=\dfrac12\cdot2u^{1/2}=\sqrt{x^2+x+1}$.
   3. Second part: $\dfrac12\displaystyle\int\dfrac{dx}{\sqrt{x^2+x+1}}=\dfrac12\int\dfrac{dx}{\sqrt{(x+1/2)^2+3/4}}$.
   4. This is of the form $\dfrac12\int\dfrac{du}{\sqrt{u^2+a^2}}$ with $u=x+1/2$, $a=\sqrt3/2$, giving $\dfrac12\sinh^{-1}\left(\dfrac{u}{a}\right)=\dfrac12\sinh^{-1}\left(\dfrac{2x+1}{\sqrt3}\right)$. …

   ›Reveal solutionSolution

   Verify by differentiation: $F(x)=\dfrac{1}{2x^2}\sqrt{2x^4-2x^2+1}$ differentiates back to the given integrand, so this is the antiderivative.

   Concept and Intuition

   When an integrand looks like it could come from differentiating a quotient of the form $\dfrac{\sqrt{\text{quartic}}}{x^2}$, the fastest rigorous route (especially under exam time pressure) is to differentiate the most plausible option and check it reproduces the integrand exactly, rather than deriving the substitution from scratch.

   Step-by-Step Solution

   1. Let $u=\sqrt{2x^4-2x^2+1}$ and $F=\dfrac{u}{2x^2}$.
   2. $u'=\dfrac{8x^3-4x}{2u}=\dfrac{4x^3-2x}{u}$.
   3. Quotient rule: $F'=\dfrac{u' \cdot 2x^2 - u\cdot 4x}{4x^4}=\dfrac{\frac{(4x^3-2x)}{u}\cdot 2x^2-4xu}{4x^4}$.
   4. Multiply numerator and denominator by $u$: $F'=\dfrac{2x^2(4x^3-2x)-4xu^2}{4x^4 u}=\dfrac{8x^5-4x^3-4x(2x^4-2x^2+1)}{4x^4u}$.

   ›Reveal solutionSolution

   Completing the square converts the integral into the standard form $\int du/(u^2-a^2)^{3/2}$, which has a known closed form; back-substituting gives option (D).

   Concept and Intuition

   Many integrals of the form $\int dx/(\text{quadratic})^{3/2}$ become standard once the quadratic is completed to a perfect-square-minus-constant form; the resulting substitution $u=x+a$ reduces it to a memorized/derivable antiderivative.

   Step-by-Step Solution

   1. $2ax+x^2=x^2+2ax+a^2-a^2=(x+a)^2-a^2$. Let $u=x+a$, $du=dx$.

   Completing the square under the root reveals the standard form $\int\frac{dx}{\sqrt{a^2-u^2}}=\sin^{-1}(u/a)$. Answer: $\sin^{-1}\left(\frac{x+3}{4}\right)+c$.

   Concept and Intuition

   A quadratic under a square root, when completed to the square, reveals which standard integral form applies: $a^2-(x-h)^2$ gives an arcsine, while $(x-h)^2+a^2$ or $(x-h)^2-a^2$ give hyperbolic-inverse/log forms.

   Step-by-Step Solution

   1. $7-6x-x^2 = -(x^2+6x-7) = -[(x+3)^2-9-7] = -(x+3)^2+16 = 16-(x+3)^2$.
   2. So the integral is $\displaystyle\int\frac{dx}{\sqrt{4^2-(x+3)^2}}$.

   ›Reveal solutionSolution

   Verifying the antiderivative by differentiating each candidate is faster and safer than guessing a substitution; the derivative of option (D) reproduces the integrand exactly. Answer: option (D).

   Concept and Intuition

   When an integral has an awkward-looking algebraic form under a square root, and the options are all algebraic expressions (not transcendental), the fastest rigorous check is to differentiate the candidate answers and see which one reproduces the integrand — this avoids errors in choosing a substitution.

   Step-by-Step Solution

   1. Let $N(x) = 1-2x^2+2x^4$ (note this equals $2x^4-2x^2+1$, the expression under the root in the integrand).
   2. Try $f(x) = \dfrac{N^{1/2}}{2x^2} = \dfrac12 N^{1/2}x^{-2}$.
   3. Differentiate: $f'(x) = \dfrac{N'}{4N^{1/2}x^2} - \dfrac{N^{1/2}}{x^3}$, where $N'=-4x+8x^3=4x(2x^2-1)$.
   4. First term becomes $\dfrac{(2x^2-1)}{xN^{1/2}}$. Combine both terms over the common denominator $x^3N^{1/2}$:

   $f'(x)=\frac{(2x^2-1)x^2 - N}{x^3N^{1/2}}.$

   5. Numerator: $(2x^2-1)x^2-N = (2x^4-x^2)-(1-2x^2+2x^4) = x^2-1$. …

   ›Reveal solutionSolution

   Complete the square in the denominator and apply the standard $\int \frac{dx}{x^2+a^2}=\frac1a\tan^{-1}(x/a)$ form. Answer: option (B).

   Concept and Intuition

   Any irreducible quadratic $ax^2+bx+c$ in a denominator under a simple rational integrand can be handled by completing the square to reduce it to the standard $u^2+a^2$ form, whose antiderivative is a scaled arctangent.

   Step-by-Step Solution

   1. Complete the square: $1+x+x^2 = \left(x+\dfrac12\right)^2 + \dfrac34 = \left(x+\dfrac12\right)^2+\left(\dfrac{\sqrt3}{2}\right)^2$.
   2. So the integral is $\displaystyle 2\int \frac{dx}{(x+\frac12)^2+(\frac{\sqrt3}{2})^2}$.
   3. Using $\int \frac{du}{u^2+a^2}=\frac1a\tan^{-1}(u/a)$ with $u=x+\frac12$, $a=\frac{\sqrt3}{2}$:

   $2\cdot\frac{1}{\sqrt3/2}\tan^{-1}\!\left(\frac{x+1/2}{\sqrt3/2}\right) = \frac{4}{\sqrt3}\tan^{-1}\!\left(\frac{2x+1}{\sqrt3}\right)+c.$

   ›Reveal solutionSolution

   Recognising the denominator as the perfect square $(3\cos x-4\sin x)^2$ and substituting $u=3-4\tan x$ reduces the integral to a simple power rule, giving $\frac{\cos x}{4(3\cos x-4\sin x)}+c$.

   Concept and Intuition

   When a trigonometric denominator has the form $a^2\cos^2x - 2ab\sin x\cos x + b^2\sin^2x$, check whether it is a perfect square $(a\cos x - b\sin x)^2$ first — this instantly turns a messy-looking integral into $\int\sec^2(\cdot)/(\text{linear in }\tan x)^2\,dx$, solvable by substitution.

   Step-by-Step Solution

   1. Observe $9\cos^2x-24\sin x\cos x+16\sin^2x=(3\cos x-4\sin x)^2$ (matches $a^2-2ab+b^2$ with $a=3\cos x,\ b=4\sin x$).
   2. So the integral is $\displaystyle\int\frac{dx}{(3\cos x-4\sin x)^2}$.
   3. Divide numerator and denominator by $\cos^2x$: $=\displaystyle\int\frac{\sec^2x\,dx}{(3-4\tan x)^2}$.

   A double substitution — first $u=9x^2-12x+1$, then $w=\sqrt u$ — turns the integral into a plain $\int\tan w\,dw$, giving $\frac13\log|\sec\sqrt{9x^2-12x+1}|+c$.

   Concept and Intuition

   When $(3x-2)$ (half the derivative of $9x^2-12x+1$) sits outside a function of $\sqrt{9x^2-12x+1}$, a chained substitution — first for the quadratic, then for its square root — collapses the whole expression to a single-variable standard integral.

   Step-by-Step Solution

   1. Let $u=9x^2-12x+1$. Then $du=(18x-12)\,dx=6(3x-2)\,dx$, so $(3x-2)\,dx=\dfrac{du}{6}$.
   2. Integral becomes $\displaystyle\int\frac{\tan\sqrt u}{\sqrt u}\cdot\frac{du}{6}=\frac16\int\frac{\tan\sqrt u}{\sqrt u}\,du$.

    Substituting $t=\sqrt{x-3}$ turns both nested radicals into perfect squares $(t\pm\sqrt3)^2$; the integrand collapses to a constant $2\sqrt3$ on $[3,6]$ and to $2\sqrt{x-3}$ for $x>6$, giving the piecewise antiderivative in (C).

    Concept and Intuition

    Nested radicals of the form $\sqrt{x\pm\sqrt{\text{linear in }x}}$ often simplify to perfect squares under a substitution that removes the inner square root. Here the key is recognizing $12x-36$ is a perfect multiple of $(x-3)$.

    Step-by-Step Solution

    1. Let $t=\sqrt{x-3}\ge0$ (valid for $x\ge3$), so $x=t^2+3$ and $12x-36=12t^2\Rightarrow \sqrt{12x-36}=2\sqrt3\,t$.
    2. $x+\sqrt{12x-36} = t^2+3+2\sqrt3\,t = (t+\sqrt3)^2 \Rightarrow \sqrt{x+\sqrt{12x-36}} = t+\sqrt3$ (always non-negative).
    3. $x-\sqrt{12x-36} = t^2+3-2\sqrt3\,t=(t-\sqrt3)^2 \Rightarrow \sqrt{x-\sqrt{12x-36}} = |t-\sqrt3|$.

    Two successive substitutions ($t=\sqrt x$, then $w=\sqrt{(1-t)/(1+t)}$) collapse the integral to $\int -2\,dw$; the answer is $-2\sqrt{\dfrac{1-\sqrt x}{1+\sqrt x}}+c$.

    Concept and Intuition

    The presence of $\sqrt x$ inside $(1+\sqrt x)$ and inside $\sqrt{x-x^2}=\sqrt x\sqrt{1-x}$ both suggest first substituting $t=\sqrt x$. What remains — a rational-times-square-root expression in $t$ symmetric under $t\to -t$ in a $(1\pm t)$ sense — is the classic cue for the substitution $w^2=\dfrac{1-t}{1+t}$, which rationalizes everything at once.

    Step-by-Step Solution

    1. Note $x-x^2=x(1-x)$, so $\sqrt{x-x^2}=\sqrt x\,\sqrt{1-x}$, and the integral is

    $\int\frac{dx}{(1+\sqrt x)\sqrt x\sqrt{1-x}}.$

    2. Let $t=\sqrt x$, so $x=t^2$, $dx=2t\,dt$:

    $\int\frac{2t\,dt}{(1+t)\,t\,\sqrt{1-t^2}}=\int\frac{2\,dt}{(1+t)\sqrt{(1-t)(1+t)}}=\int\frac{2\,dt}{(1+t)^{3/2}(1-t)^{1/2}}.$

    3. Let $w=\sqrt{\dfrac{1-t}{1+t}}$, so $t=\dfrac{1-w^2}{1+w^2}$ and $dt=\dfrac{-4w}{(1+w^2)^2}\,dw$. One finds

    $1+t=\frac{2}{1+w^2},\qquad 1-t=\frac{2w^2}{1+w^2},$

    so

    $(1+t)^{3/2}(1-t)^{1/2}=\frac{4w}{(1+w^2)^2}.$
