Find \int_{}^{} x*(tan^(-1)(x))^2\,d
The integral of \( x(\tan^{-1}(x))^2 \) requires the application of integration by parts. The suggested approach involves setting \( u = (\tan^{-1}(x))^2 \) and \( dv = x \, dx \). This method, while valid, leads to a complex solution that necessitates multiple steps, and participants in the discussion noted the absence of a straightforward result. The discussion highlights the challenges faced when attempting to evaluate this integral without clear limits of integration.
PREREQUISITESStudents and professionals in mathematics, particularly those studying calculus and integral evaluation techniques, will benefit from this discussion.

I did it but it needs many steps and there is no resultProve It said:I would attempt integration by parts with $\displaystyle \begin{align*} u = \left[ \arctan{(x)} \right] ^2 \end{align*}$ and $\displaystyle \begin{align*} \mathrm{d}v = x\,\mathrm{d}x \end{align*}$...
