integral of (x^2)/((1-x^2)^{3/2)}

\int \frac{x ^{2}}{( 1 - x ^{2} ) ^{\frac{3}{2}}} d x

- arcsin (x) + \frac{x}{( 1 - x ^{2} ) ^{\frac{1}{2}}} + C

Solution steps

\int \frac{x ^{2}}{( 1 - x ^{2} ) ^{\frac{3}{2}}} d x

Apply Trigonometric Substitution

= \int tan^{2} (u) d u

Rewrite using trig identities

= \int - 1 + sec^{2} (u) d u

Apply the Sum Rule:

\int f (x) \pm g (x) d x = \int f (x) d x \pm \int g (x) d x

= - \int 1 d u + \int sec^{2} (u) d u

\int 1 d u = u

\int sec^{2} (u) d u = tan (u)

= - u + tan (u)

Substitute back

u = arcsin (x)

= - arcsin (x) + tan (arcsin (x))

Simplify

- arcsin (x) + tan (arcsin (x)) : - arcsin (x) + \frac{x}{( 1 - x ^{2} ) ^{\frac{1}{2}}}

= - arcsin (x) + \frac{x}{( 1 - x ^{2} ) ^{\frac{1}{2}}}

Add a constant to the solution

= - arcsin (x) + \frac{x}{( 1 - x ^{2} ) ^{\frac{1}{2}}} + C
