Solved: ?Improper Integrals that Are Both Type 1 and Type 2 The integral

Chapter 7, Problem 68

(choose chapter or problem)

Improper Integrals that Are Both Type 1 and Type 2 The integral \(\int_{a}^{\infty} f(x) d x\) is improper because the interval \([a, \infty)\) is infinite. If \(f\) has an infinite discontinuity at \(a\), then the integral is improper for a second reason. In this case we evaluate the integral by expressing it as a sum of improper integrals of Type 2 and Type 1 as follows:

                                  \(\int_{a}^{\infty} f(x) d x=\int_{a}^{c} f(x) d x+\int_{c}^{\infty} f(x) d x c>a\)

Evaluate the given integral if it is convergent.

                          \(\int_{2}^{\infty} \frac{1}{x \sqrt{x^{2}-4}} d x\)
