How do you integrate ∫(sin−1x)2 using integration by parts?
Solution
In the above given question, we are given the square of an inverse trigonometric function that is a sine function. We have to integrate the given expression using the method of integration by parts. In order to approach the solution, first we have to consider the given function as the combination of two functions as (sin−1x)2⋅1 , where (sin−1x)2 is to be treated as the first function whereas 1 is to be treated as the second function.
Complete answer:
Given that, the square of an inverse trigonometric function as (sin−1x)2 .
We have to integrate the above given expression using the method of integration by parts.
i.e. we have to integrate ∫(sin−1x)2 using the integration by parts method.
Since, the given function is ∫(sin−1x)2 .
Hence, we can also write the given function as ∫(sin−1x)2⋅1
So, let
I=∫(sin−1x)2⋅1dx
Now let (sin−1x)2 to be the first function and 1 to be the second function.
Now, integrating by the method of integration by parts we get,
I = {\left( {{{\sin }^{ - 1}}x} \right)^2}\int {1dx} - \int {\left\\{ {\dfrac{d}{{dx}}{{\left( {{{\sin }^{ - 1}}x} \right)}^2} \cdot \int 1 } \right\\}} dx
That gives us,
I=(sin−1x)2⋅x−∫1−x22sin−1x⋅xdx
We can also write it as,
I=x⋅(sin−1x)2+∫sin−1x⋅(1−x2−2x)dx
Again integrating the second part using integration by parts, we get
I = x \cdot {\left( {{{\sin }^{ - 1}}x} \right)^2} + \left[ {{{\sin }^{ - 1}}x\int {\left( {\dfrac{{ - 2x}}{{\sqrt {1 - {x^2}} }}} \right)dx - \int {\left\\{ {\dfrac{d}{{dx}}{{\sin }^{ - 1}}x\int {\dfrac{{ - 2x}}{{\sqrt {1 - {x^2}} }}} dx} \right\\}dx} } } \right]
That gives us,
I=x⋅(sin−1x)2+[sin−1x⋅21−x2−∫1−x21⋅21−x2dx]
On solving further, we get
I=x⋅(sin−1x)2+21−x2sin−1x−∫2dx
Hence, we get the integration as
I=x⋅(sin−1x)2+21−x2sin−1x−2x+C
Where C is the integration constant.
That is the required integration.
Therefore, the value of the integral ∫(sin−1x)2 using integration by parts, is x⋅(sin−1x)2+21−x2sin−1x−2x+C .
Note: Integration by parts is a technique for performing indefinite integration or definite integration by expanding the differential of a product of functions and expressing the original integral in terms of a known integral . Integration by parts is for functions that can be written as the product of another function and a third function's derivative.
