Am I correct for pattern matching this integral?



I have



$$int frac{sqrt{9x^2+4}}{x^2}dx$$



Does this pattern match with:



$$int frac{sqrt{a^2 + x^2}}{x^2}dx = -frac{a^2 + x^2}{x} + ln(x + sqrt{a^2 + x^2}) + c$$



If I factor out the 9, I get



$$= 3 int frac{sqrt{x^2 + frac{4}{9}}}{x^2}$$
with $a = frac{2}{3}$



I get:
$$3 left( - frac{sqrt{frac{4}{9}+x^2}}{x} + lnleft(x+sqrt{frac{4}{9}+x^2}right) +cright)$$



Is this the right track?

    One quick way to check the result is to put your formula into Wolfram Alpha (without the constant, which in this case is just adding $3c$ to the result) and subtract the formula Wolfram Alpha gave (again omitting the constant). If the result is a flat constant function then your integral is correct.

You are indeed correct. Note that in an indefinite integral, perfectly valid answers can be separated by (any) constant.



The first term in Wolfram's answer can be rewritten:



$3ln{(frac32(x+sqrt{frac49 + x^2}))} = 3ln{(x+sqrt{frac49 + x^2})} + 3lnfrac 32$



and the second term can be rearranged to be identical to your other term.



So your answers are separated by a constant. That's fine. You're right.
