Question

Can an integral have two answers?


Open in App
Solution

It is possible only in case of Indefinite Integration.

You can see a single function has two different results. Thus it is possible to have more than one result in Indefinite Integral.

For example,

1(x2+a2)dx=1atan-1xa+C=-1acot-1xa+C

Hence, an integral can have two answers.
