Homework Statement



Integral of sqrt(x-1)/sqrt(x)


Homework Equations





The Attempt at a Solution



I think I have to sub x = sinh2 so you get sqrt(1-sinh2)/sqrt(sinh2)
I forget what to do after this

I'm not totally sure that x = \sinh^2(u) will help you in this case since then x-1 = cosh^2(x)-2. Trying x= cosh^2(u) should lead to better results.
