integration problem

I'm pretty new to differentiation, so I tried doing this integral and I'm a little hazy on just the reason of why it works out like this. I just wanted to confirm, if it would be correct to say that this integral is in the form f'(x) / f(x) , because my textbook taught me to use this method whenever I spot this form.


thanks for any help, I appreciate it greatly
Yeah this is fine, it's not quite of the form f'(x)/f(x) it's of the form k*(f'(x)/f(x)) for constant k. (more specifically, k = -1/4) Your answer is fine in any case.

Oh the k constant bit helps my understanding out a lot, thanks a lot man !!
