∫((sin^(−1) (x))/(1 − x^2 )) dx

$$\int\frac{{sin}^{−\mathrm{1}} \left({x}\right)}{\mathrm{1}\:−\:{x}^{\mathrm{2}} }\:{dx} \\ $$

do you mean ∫((sin^(−1) (x))/(√(1−x^2 )))dx

$${do}\:{you}\:{mean}\:\int\frac{\mathrm{sin}^{−\mathrm{1}} \left({x}\right)}{\sqrt{\mathrm{1}−{x}^{\mathrm{2}} }}{dx} \\ $$

let u =sin^(−1) (x).  then  (du/dx)=(1/(√(1−x^2 )))  so du = (1/(√(1+x^2 )))dx  substituting gives  ∫((sin^(−1) (x))/(√(1−x^2 )))dx = ∫u du = (1/2)u^2 +C=(1/2)(sin^(−1) (x))^2 +C

$$\mathrm{let}\:{u}\:=\mathrm{sin}^{−\mathrm{1}} \left({x}\right). \\ $$$$\mathrm{then}\:\:\frac{{du}}{{dx}}=\frac{\mathrm{1}}{\sqrt{\mathrm{1}−{x}^{\mathrm{2}} }} \\ $$$$\mathrm{so}\:{du}\:=\:\frac{\mathrm{1}}{\sqrt{\mathrm{1}+{x}^{\mathrm{2}} }}{dx} \\ $$$$\mathrm{substituting}\:\mathrm{gives} \\ $$$$\int\frac{\mathrm{sin}^{−\mathrm{1}} \left({x}\right)}{\sqrt{\mathrm{1}−{x}^{\mathrm{2}} }}{dx}\:=\:\int{u}\:{du}\:=\:\frac{\mathrm{1}}{\mathrm{2}}{u}^{\mathrm{2}} +{C}=\frac{\mathrm{1}}{\mathrm{2}}\left(\mathrm{sin}^{−\mathrm{1}} \left({x}\right)\right)^{\mathrm{2}} +{C} \\ $$$$ \\ $$
