FORMULA
Equals Integral_{x>0} ((3*x)/((1 + x)*(1 + 3*x + 6*x^2 + 4*x^3 + x^4))) dx.
Equals (3*c/(2*c^2+1)) * log((c-1)/(c+1)) + (3*(c-1)/(2*(2*c^2+1))) * sqrt(c/(c+2)) * arctan(2*sqrt(c^2+2*c)/(c^2+2*c-1)) + (3*(c+1)/(2*(2*c^2+1))) * sqrt(c/(c-2)) * arctan(2*sqrt(c^2-2*c)/(c^2-2*c-1)), where c = sqrt(1 + (16/sqrt(3)) * cos(arctan(sqrt(229/27))/3)) (Batir and Sofo, 2013). - Amiram Eldar, Dec 07 2024
