    \[\int_{{}}^{{}}{\frac{dx}{({{x}^{2}}+1)({{x}^{2}}+4)}=}\]                [MP PET 1995]

    A)                 \[\frac{1}{3}{{\tan }^{-1}}x-\frac{1}{3}{{\tan }^{-1}}\frac{x}{2}+c\]           

    B)                 \[\frac{1}{3}{{\tan }^{-1}}x+\frac{1}{3}{{\tan }^{-1}}\frac{x}{2}+c\]

    C)                 \[\frac{1}{3}{{\tan }^{-1}}x-\frac{1}{6}{{\tan }^{-1}}\frac{x}{2}+c\]           

    D)                 \[{{\tan }^{-1}}x-2{{\tan }^{-1}}\frac{x}{2}+c\]

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

                       \[\int_{{}}^{{}}{\frac{dx}{({{x}^{2}}+1)({{x}^{2}}+4)}}=\frac{1}{3}\left[ \int_{{}}^{{}}{\frac{dx}{{{x}^{2}}+1}-\int_{{}}^{{}}{\frac{dx}{{{x}^{2}}+4}}} \right]\]                 \[=\frac{1}{3}\left[ {{\tan }^{-1}}x-\frac{1}{2}{{\tan }^{-1}}\frac{x}{2} \right]+c=\frac{1}{3}{{\tan }^{-1}}x-\frac{1}{6}{{\tan }^{-1}}\frac{x}{2}+c\].
