Hi everyone

 

Another one for tomorrow:

 

[math]I=\int{x\cdot\arcsin{x}\text{ d}x}[/math]

 

[math]I=\int{\arcsin{x}\text{ d}\left(\frac{x^2}{2}\right)}[/math]

 

[math]I=\frac{1}{2}\left(x^2\cdot\arcsin{x}-\int{x^2\text{ d}(\arcsin{x})}\right)[/math]

 

[math]I=\frac{1}{2}(a(x)- b(x))[/math]

 

[math]b(x)=\int{\frac{x^2}{\sqrt{1-x^2}}\text{ d}x}[/math]

 

Let [math]\sqrt{1-x^2}=u[/math]

 

[math]\text{d}u=\frac{-x\text{ d}x}{\sqrt{1-x^2}}[/math]

 

[math]\text{d}x=\frac{-\sqrt{1-x^2}\text{ d}u}{x}[/math]

 

[math]b(x)=\int{\frac{x^2\sqrt{1-x^2}\text{ d}u}{-x\sqrt{1-x^2}}}[/math]

 

[math]b(x)=-\int{x\text{ d}u}[/math]

 

[math]u=\sqrt{1-x^2}\Leftrightarrow x=\pm\sqrt{1-u^2}[/math]

 

[math]b(x)=-\int{\left(1-u^2\right)^{\frac{1}{2}}\text{ d}u}[/math]

 

(Or the opposite, but also when I fill in that one in the total result, my calculator won't give a constant term (see later))

 

[math]b(x)=\cdots = -\frac{1}{2}\left(\frac{2}{3}(1-u^2)^{\frac{3}{2}}\right)+C=\cdots =-\frac{1}{3}x^3+C[/math]

 

[math]I=\frac{1}{2}\left(x^2\arcsin{x}+\frac{1}{3}x^3\right)+C[/math]

 

Now, my book gives the following answer:

 

[math]\frac{1}{4}\left((2x^2-1)\arcsin{x}+x\sqrt{1-x^2}\right)+C[/math]

 

I used my TI-84 Plus to see if they do differ only from one constant, but they don't. My answer should thus be incorrect.

 

Can someone help me?

 

Thanks!

I found a video online showing the solution, but I don't really see where my way of working it out went wrong..?

To integrate the arcsin of x, use integration by parts.
