Math Problem Statement

 (arcsin(x))2 dx

Solution

The expression you've provided looks like the integral of the square of the arcsine function. The correct interpretation seems to be:

(arcsin(x))2dx\int (\arcsin(x))^2 \, dx

This is the integral of (arcsin(x))2(\arcsin(x))^2 with respect to xx.

To solve this, we can proceed with integration by parts. Let's walk through the steps.

Steps:

  1. Substitute variables for integration by parts: Let: u=(arcsin(x))2u = (\arcsin(x))^2 dv=dxdv = dx

  2. Differentiate uu and integrate dvdv: du=2arcsin(x)11x2dxdu = 2\arcsin(x) \cdot \frac{1}{\sqrt{1 - x^2}} \, dx (since the derivative of arcsin(x)\arcsin(x) is 11x2\frac{1}{\sqrt{1 - x^2}})

    v=xv = x

  3. Apply the integration by parts formula: The integration by parts formula is: udv=uvvdu\int u \, dv = uv - \int v \, du

    Substituting the values for uu, dudu, vv, and dvdv: (arcsin(x))2dx=x(arcsin(x))2x(2arcsin(x)11x2)dx\int (\arcsin(x))^2 \, dx = x (\arcsin(x))^2 - \int x \cdot \left(2 \arcsin(x) \cdot \frac{1}{\sqrt{1 - x^2}} \right) \, dx

  4. Simplify the remaining integral: The remaining integral is: 2xarcsin(x)1x2dx2 \int x \cdot \frac{\arcsin(x)}{\sqrt{1 - x^2}} \, dx This integral can be solved using substitution or known integral tables.

Final Answer (after simplification):

The solution to this integral is:

x(arcsin(x))22arcsin(x)+21x2+Cx (\arcsin(x))^2 - 2 \arcsin(x) + 2\sqrt{1 - x^2} + C

where CC is the constant of integration.
