Use Partial fraction to evaluate {eq}\int \frac{1}{(x - 1)(x^2 + 2)} \, \mathrm{d}x {/eq}.
Question:
Use Partial fraction to evaluate {eq}\int \frac{1}{(x - 1)(x^2 + 2)} \, \mathrm{d}x {/eq}.
Partial fractions:
A polynomial of second degree defined by the expression {eq}\,\, x^2+a^2 \,\, {/eq}, is an irreducible polynomial that has two conjugate complex roots. By applying the method of decomposition into partial fractions the the summand is obtained:{eq}\,\, \frac{cx+b}{x^2+a^2} \,\, {/eq}
