First approach. $\int \frac{1}{1+x^2} dx=\frac{x}{1+x^2}+2\int \frac{x^2}{\left(1+x^2\right)^2} dx=\frac{x}{1+x^2}+2\int \frac{1}{1+x^2}dx-2\int \frac{1}{\left(1+x^2\right)^2}dx$ From this ...

If any integration is in form $$\int \frac{1}{1+x^2}dx$$ it easily follows by substituting for $\tan^{-1}x$. But how to simplify if we have $$\int \frac{1}{(1+x^2)^2}dx$$
