I'm going to give my even answers so far just to compare and see if everyone else is getting the same.  Some are a little weird in my opinion.  I used a calculator on a few too.

  • No, note that after you separate the fracion you should get:

$ \int_{0}^{1/2}\frac{2}{1+4x^2}dx-\int_0^{1/2}\frac{8x}{1+4x^2}dx $

Now in the first integral substitute $ v=2x $ Therefore $ dv=2dx $ and when x=0, v=0 and x=1/2, v=1. In the second integral substitute $ u=1+4x^2 $ therefore $ du=8xdx $ and when x=0, u=1 and x=1/2, u=2

Now after substitution we have:

$ \int_0^1\frac{dv}{1+v^2}-\int_0^2\frac{du}{u} $

This eliminates the 2 you might have factored out. From this it is easy to see that the integrals will involve inverse tangetn and natural logs.Jhunsber
