    Integrating cos^-2(x) after inverse substitution

    Homework Statement Use the substitution x=4sin(t) to evaluate the integral: S 1/[(16-x^2)^(3/2)] dxHomework Equations x = 4sin(t) The Attempt at a Solution x = 4sin(t) dx = 4cos(t) dt 4cos(t) = (16-x^2)^(1/2), i cube both sides to get (4cos(t))^3 = (16-x^2)^(3/2), then plug in dx and...
