Use implicit differentiation to find dy/dx if y - sin(xy) = x^2.

What I've got is dy/dx y - cos(xy)(y+x dy/dx) = 2x

I don't know what I did and I don't know where to go from here.

You will need to post your attempt.
 
slight mistake: \frac{d}{dx}(y)\ne\frac{dy}{dx}y

after differentiating, group like terms and factor out the y'
 
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...
