integration - What is the fast way to evaluate the following integral: intfracsqrtx2+1x4mathrmdx?

I am trying to evaluate the following integral:



x2+1x4dx



I tried the trigonometric substitution: u=tan(x). Generally, The whole integral needs two substitutions: u=tan(x) then v=sin(u). In order to get rid of trigonometric functions, one needs to know that: sin(arctan(x))=xx2+1



My question is: What is the fast substitution that leads to the answer without passing by the above steps?
