Does this indefinite integral converge for anyone? Also, if you are having trouble with the integral, take a look at the derivatives of inverse hyperbolic functions. --John Mason
It does not converge for me. I used direct comparison to test whether it converges or not. I started by comparing $ \sqrt{x^4-1} $ and $ \sqrt{x^4} $ It was easy from there. --Josh Visigothsandwich
Thanks. I'm not really sure that I needed to use some sort of comparison to show it didn't converge, as it did integrate nicely, but its good to have a second opinion, be that mathematical or otherwise. --John Mason
