Homework Statement


Could anyone show me how integral (5) in this document is calculated. I've been trying and trying but nothing good came out.

[tex]\theta=\frac{\rho}{R}\int\sqrt{\frac{R^2-r^2}{r^2-\rho^2}}\frac{dr}{r}=[/tex]
[tex]=\arctan\left(\frac{R}{\rho}\sqrt{\frac{r^2-\rho^2}{R^2-r^2}\right)-\frac{\rho}{R}\arctan\sqrt{\frac{r^2-\rho^2}{R^2-r^2}[/tex]

Thank you in advance.
