Multiplying the top and bottom by the complex conj. of the bottom:

\frac{a+ib}{c+id} * \frac{c-id}{c-id}

Gives me:

\frac{(ac+bd) - i(ad-bc)}{c^{2}+d^{2}}

In form x+iy it is:

\frac{(ac+bd)}{c^{2}+d^{2}} + (\frac{(bc-ad)}{c^{2}+d^{2}})*i

This is where I get stuck. In order to prove \left(\frac{a+ib}{c+id}\right)*\equiv\frac{a-ib}{c-id} I think that I am supposed to take the complex conjugate of my previous answer and then work backwards until I get to \frac{a-ib}{c-id}. I have tried this with several different variations and I am not coming up with the proof at all. I need a bump in the right direction here.

i think you're heading right direction, first combine everything on the same denominator, then use the fact
c^2+d^2 = (c+id)(c-id)

and previously you multiplied
(a+ib)(c-id) = (ac+bd) + i(bc-ad)

so now use the fact
(a+ib)(c+id) = (ac+bd) - i(bc-ad)
(check if you need)
 
Prove $$\int\limits_0^{\sqrt2/4}\frac{1}{\sqrt{x-x^2}}\arcsin\sqrt{\frac{(x-1)\left(x-1+x\sqrt{9-16x}\right)}{1-2x}} \, \mathrm dx = \frac{\pi^2}{8}.$$ Let $$I = \int\limits_0^{\sqrt 2 / 4}\frac{1}{\sqrt{x-x^2}}\arcsin\sqrt{\frac{(x-1)\left(x-1+x\sqrt{9-16x}\right)}{1-2x}} \, \mathrm dx. \tag{1}$$ The representation integral of ##\arcsin## is $$\arcsin u = \int\limits_{0}^{1} \frac{\mathrm dt}{\sqrt{1-t^2}}, \qquad 0 \leqslant u \leqslant 1.$$ Plugging identity above into ##(1)## with ##u...
