To evaluate the improper integral \(\int \frac{dx}{x^2 + 361}\), we can use the fact that \(x^2 + 361 = x^2 + 19^2\). The integral can then be solved using the formula for the integral of a secant function: \[ \int \frac{dx}{x^2 + a^2} = \frac{1}{a} \tan^{-1}\left(\frac{x}{a}\right) + C. \] In this case, \(a = 19\). Therefore, we have: \[ \int \frac{dx}{x^2 + 361} = \frac{1}{19} \tan^{-1}\left(\frac{x}{19}\right) + C. \] Since the limit of \(\tan^{-1}\) approaches \( \frac{\pi}{2} \) as \(x\) approaches infinity, the integral converges. Thus, the answer would be: A. The improper integral converges and \( \frac{d x}{x^{2}+361} = \frac{1}{19} \tan^{-1}\left(\frac{x}{19}\right) + C \).
