Homework Statement

I = \int^{2}_{0} (1-e^{-x})/\sqrt{x}

I=\int^{2}_{0.1}x/sin^2(x)

Homework Equations


The Attempt at a Solution


I tried to integrate by part, but I approached to trivial solution. I know that the answer is involved with Error function, but I don't know how I could reach the answer. so does anybody have any idea? please help.

I am not sure but I am thinking about power series solution for the first integral. How can I fix up the singularity?
 


u^2 = x
 


For the second one, integration by parts is your friend. Just remember to rearrange sin^2(x) first.
 


thank you guys, your hints were so helpful.
