integrate: (x2-1) / [(x4+3x2+1) * tan-1{(x2+1)/x}] dx

(x2-1) / [(x4+3x2+1) * tan-1{(x2+1)/x}] dx
Divide numerator and denominator ay x2 ,
We get   (1-1/x2) / [{(x+1/x)2+1}* tan-1(x + (1/x))] ,
Put  tan-1(x+(1/x)) = t and diffrentiate on both side we get,

⇒ (1 - 1/x2) dx / {1+(x+1/x)2} = dt
Now substituting this value then term 1+(x+1/x)2 will get cancelled and finally we will left with , 

 ⇒ ∫ 1/t. dt = logt + C = log tan-1(x+1/x) + C
