The following definite integral sends Maxima into a lengthy calculation that doesn't seem to end:
integrate(log(2*sqrt(1-x^2)+4),x,1,2);
But the following returns a nounform almost immediately
integrate(log(3*sqrt(1-x^2)+4),x,1,2);
I think the problem with this definite integral in computing the limit:
limit(x*log(2*sqrt(1-x^2)+4),x,2,'minus)
I belive that tlimit compute the limit correctly
(%i1) tlimit(x*log(2*sqrt(1-x^2)+4),x,2,'minus); (%o1) 2*log(2*sqrt(3)*%i+4)
