Case 4

6. What are the forms (constant, linear, or quadratic) of the numerators in each fraction above?
7. How does the form of the numerator compare with its denominator?
8. Explain the differences in the form of the numerators for terms with irreducible quadratics (case 3) and
repeating linear terms (case 2).
9. Evaluate the integral.

Case 4. Q(x) Contains Repeated Irreducible Quadratic Factors
Something like (x2 +2)2 occurs in the factorization of Q(x). In this case we need to write a fraction for each
power of x2 + 2. For example,
Cx + D
(x² + 2)²*
8x3 +13x
Ax + B
(x2 + 2)2

11. How is the partial fraction decomposition in case 4 similar to case 2 and case 3?
12. Write the partial fraction decomposition for the rational expression.

14. Is partial fraction decomposition necessary for integrating all rational functions? How are the rational
functions in problems 1, 2, and 3 different than the others?
15. Using compete sentences, summarize the process of using partial fractions for integrating a rational function.
Specify the algebraic tools needed throughout the process.
