    \[\int \frac{\sqrt{x-1}}{x\sqrt{x+1}}dx\]is equal to

    A) \[\ln \,\left| x-\sqrt{{{x}^{2}}-1} \right|-{{\tan }^{-1}}x+c\]

    B) \[\ln \,\left| x+\sqrt{{{x}^{2}}-1} \right|-{{\tan }^{-1}}x+c\]

    C) \[\ln \,\left| x-\sqrt{{{x}^{2}}-1} \right|-{{\sec }^{-1}}x+c\]

    D) \[\ln \,\left| x+\sqrt{{{x}^{2}}-1} \right|-{{\sec }^{-1}}x+c\]

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

    [d] \[I=\int{\frac{\sqrt{x-1}}{x\sqrt{x+1}}dx}\] \[=\int{\frac{x-1}{x\sqrt{{{x}^{2}}-1}}dx}\] \[=\int{\frac{dx}{\sqrt{{{x}^{2}}-1}}-\int{\frac{dx}{x\sqrt{{{x}^{2}}-1}}}}\] \[=\ln |x+\sqrt{{{x}^{2}}-1}|-{{\sec }^{-1}}x+c\]
