Homework Statement
[itex]\displaystyle \int_0^1 \dfrac{xe^{tan^{-1}x}}{\sqrt{1+x^2}} dx [/itex]
Homework Equations
The Attempt at a Solution
Let tan^-1 (x) = t
x = tant
dt=dx/sqrt{1+x^2}
The integral then reduces to
[itex]\displaystyle \int_0^{\pi/4} tante^tdt [/itex]
Applying integration by parts by taking tant as 1st function
[itex]tant e^t - \displaystyle \int sec^2te^t dt [/itex]
This has made the problem more complicated instead of simplifying.
