I have a problem that I'm having a lot of problems trying to solve. I found
 the answer to it on the online integrator but I don't understand the work 
behind it. I someone could explain the math behind it that would be greatly
 appreciated.
Question: 1/(1+x^2)^2
ans: [x/(2(1+x^2))]+[(arctan x)/2]
Thanks,
Tom
