SUMMARY

The integral of arcsin(x) dx can be solved using integration by parts, resulting in the expression x * arcsin(x) - ∫(x dx)/(√(1-x²)). To evaluate the integral ∫(x dx)/(√(1-x²)), a u-substitution is recommended, specifically using u = 1 - x². This substitution simplifies the integral and facilitates the solution process.

The Attempt at a Solution


Im trying to sovle it using integrations by parts.

the interal of arcsinx dx = x arcsinx - integral (x dx)/(sqrt (1-x^2))

What is the integral of integral (x dx)/(sqrt (1-x^2)) ?

Thanks in advance.
