Evaluate: $\int \frac{d x}{5-8 x-x^2}$
  • A
    $\frac{1}{\sqrt{21}} \log \left|\frac{\sqrt{21}+x+4}{\sqrt{21}-x-4}\right|+C$
  • $\frac{1}{2 \sqrt{21}} \log \left|\frac{\sqrt{21}+x+4}{\sqrt{21}-x-4}\right|+C$
  • C
    $\frac{1}{\sqrt{21}} \log \left|\frac{\sqrt{21}-x-4}{\sqrt{21}+x+4}\right|+C$
  • D
    $\frac{1}{2 \sqrt{21}} \log \left|\frac{\sqrt{21}-x-4}{\sqrt{21}+x+4}\right|+C$

Answer

Correct option: B.
$\frac{1}{2 \sqrt{21}} \log \left|\frac{\sqrt{21}+x+4}{\sqrt{21}-x-4}\right|+C$
Let $I=\int \frac{d x}{5-8 x-x^2}=\int \frac{d x}{21-(x+4)^2}$
$=\int \frac{d x}{(\sqrt{21})^2-(x+4)^2}=\frac{1}{2 \sqrt{21}} \log \left|\frac{\sqrt{21}+x+4}{\sqrt{21}-x-4}\right|+C$
