Hi guys. I have a problem with an integration problem I've recently stumbled upon.
[tex]\int \frac{1}{sin^{-1} x\sqrt{1-x^2}} dx}[/tex]
This is directly integrable, but if I do it by parts, I get a weird result of [tex]\int \frac{1}{sin^{-1} x\sqrt{1-x^2}} dx} = 1 + \int \frac{1}{sin^{-1} x\sqrt{1-x^2}} dx}[/tex]! Why is that so?
EDIT: Why doesn't my LaTeX work?!
