Evaluate the Integral
Problem
Solution
Identify the structure of the integrand as a potential candidate for an inverse trigonometric substitution, noting that
e^(2*x)=(e^x)^2 Substitute
u=e^x to simplify the expression.Differentiate the substitution to find
d(u)=e^x*d(x) Rewrite the integral in terms of
u by substitutinge^x*d(x) withd(u) ande^(2*x) withu^2
Apply the formula for the integral of the inverse sine function, where
(∫_^)(1/√(,1−u^2)*d(u))=arcsin(u)+C Back-substitute the original expression for
u to return to the variablex
