Question
Evaluate the following integrals:$\int\frac{1}{\sqrt{7-6\text{x}-\text{x}^2}}\text{ dx}$

Answer

$7 - 6x - x^2$​​​​​​​ can be written as $7 - (x^2 + 6x + 9 - 9)$.Therefore,
$7-(\text{x}^2+6\text{x}+9-9)$
$=16-(\text{x}^2+6\text{x}+9)$ $=16-(\text{x}+3)^2$ $=(4)^2-(\text{x}+3)^2$ $\therefore\ \int\frac{1}{\sqrt{7-6\text{x}-\text{x}^2}}\text{ dx}$ $=\int\frac{1}{\sqrt{(4)^2-(\text{x}+3)^2}}\text{ dx}$ Let x + 3 = t $\Rightarrow\text{dx}=\text{dt}$ $\Rightarrow\int\frac{1}{\sqrt{(4)^2-(\text{x}+3)^2}}\text{ dx}=\int\frac{1}{\sqrt{(4)^2-(\text{t})^2}}\text{ dt}$ $=\sin^{-1}\Big(\frac{\text{t}}{4}\Big)+\text{C}$ $=\sin^{-1}\Big(\frac{\text{x}+3}{4}\Big)+\text{C}$
