The following is a list of integrals (antiderivative functions) of rational functions. For a more complete list of integrals, please see table of integrals and list of integrals.

\int (ax + b)^n dx = \frac{(ax + b)^{n+1}}{a(n + 1)} \qquad\mbox{(for } n\neq -1\mbox{)}\,\!

Any rational function can be integrated using above equations and partial fractions in integration, by decomposing the rational function into a sum of functions of the form:

\frac{ex + f}{\left(ax^2+bx+c\right)^n}.
