Learn how to solve integrals by partial fraction expansion problems step by step online. Find the integral int((4x^2-1)/(2x(x^2+2x+1)))dx. The trinomial \left(x^2+2x+1\right) is a perfect square trinomial, because it's discriminant is equal to zero. Using the perfect square trinomial formula. Factoring the perfect square trinomial. We can solve the integral \int\frac{4x^2-1}{2x\left(x+1\right)^{2}}dx by applying integration by substitution method (also called U-Substitution). First, we must identify a section within the integral with a new variable (let's call it u), which when substituted makes the integral easier. We see that x+1 it's a good candidate for substitution. Let's define a variable u and assign it to the choosen part.
