$\int\left(\frac{\log x-1}{1+(\log x)^2}\right)^2 d x=$

$\int\left(\frac{\log x-1}{1+(\log x)^2}\right)^2 d x=$
  1. $\frac{\log x}{1+(\log x)^2}+c$
  2. $\frac{x}{x^2+1}+c$
  3. $\frac{x}{1+(\log x)^2}+c$
  4. $\frac{-x}{1+(\log x)^2}+c$

Solution

We have, $ \begin{aligned} & I=\int\left\{\frac{\log x-1}{1+(\log x)^2}\right\}^2 d x \\ &=\int e^t \frac{(t-1)^2}{\left(t^2+1\right)^2} d t, \quad \text { where } t=\log x \\ &=\int e^t \frac{t^2+1-2 t}{\left(t^2+1\right)^2} d t \\ &=\int e^t\left\{\frac{1}{t^2+1}+\frac{-2 t}{\left(t^2+1\right)^2}\right\} d t \\ &=\frac{e^t}{t^2+1}+C=\frac{x}{(\log x)^2+1}+C . \end{aligned} $
