x=sqrt(1/(e-1))

Explanation:

ln(1+x^2)=1+2ln x

By Log Property: rln x=ln x^r,

Rightarrow ln(1+x^2)=1+ln x^2

By raising e to both sides,

Rightarrow e^(ln(1+x^2))=e^(1+ln x^2)=e^1 cdot e^(ln x^2)

By Inverse Property: e^(ln x)=x,

Rightarrow 1+x^2=ex^2

By subtracting x^2 from both sides,

Rightarrow 1=ex^2-x^2=(e-1)x^2

By dividing both sides by (e-1),

Rightarrow 1/(e-1)=x^2

By taking the square-root of both sides,

pm sqrt(1/(e-1))=x

Since the domain of ln x is x>0, we have

x=sqrt(1/(e-1))

I hope that this was clear.
