The Attempt at a Solution


I'm very new to proof-based math, and just looking for some help to get started with this one. Thanks in advance.

For this part
\sqrt{\Sum_i x_i^2} \leq \Sum_i |x_i|

it should be clear
0 \leq \sqrt{\Sum_i x_i^2}
0 \leq \leq \Sum_i |x_i|

so squaring both sides could be useful
 
I tried that and didn't get far. It seems to my the leftmost inequality is always equal. I must be thinking about it wrong. In what instance would that inequality be less than?
 
you should some cross terms like |xi||xj| on in the middle, which don't appear on the left
 
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...
