**Integration Problem with Trigonometric Substitution**

Evaluate the integral:

\[ \int \frac{17}{x^2 \sqrt{x^2 + 25}} \, dx \]

---

**(A) Which trig substitution is correct for this integral?**

- [ ] \( x = 5 \tan(\theta) \)
- [ ] \( x = 17 \sec(\theta) \)
- [ ] \( x = 25 \sin(\theta) \)
- [ ] \( x = 25 \tan(\theta) \)
- [ ] \( x = 25 \sec(\theta) \)
- [ ] \( x = 5 \sin(\theta) \)

---

**(B) Which integral do you obtain after substituting for \( x \) and simplifying?**  
**Note:** to enter \( \theta \), type the word "theta."

\[ \int \boxed{\phantom{answer}} \, d\theta \]

---

**(C) What is the value of the above integral in terms of \( \theta \)?**

\[ \boxed{\phantom{answer}} + C \]

---

**(D) What is the value of the original integral in terms of \( x \)?**

\[ \boxed{\phantom{answer}} + C \]
