Question
Evaluate the following integrals:
$\int\frac{1}{\sqrt{1-\text{x}^2}(\sin^{-1}\text{x})^2}\text{dx}$

Answer

$\int\frac{\text{dx}}{\sqrt{1-\text{x}^2}(\sin^{-1}\text{x})^2}$
$\text{Let,}\sin^{-1}\text{x}=\text{t}$
$\Rightarrow\frac{1}{\sqrt{1-\text{x}^2}}=\frac{\text{dt}}{\text{dx}}$
$\Rightarrow\frac{1}{\sqrt{1-\text{x}^2}}\text{dx}=\text{dt}$
$\text{Now,}\int\frac{\text{dx}}{\sqrt{1-\text{x}^2}(\sin^{-1}\text{x})^2}$
$=\int\frac{\text{dt}}{\text{t}^2}$
$=\int\text{t}^{-2}\text{dt}$
$=\frac{\text{t}^{-2+1}}{-2+1}+\text{C}$
$=\frac{-1}{\text{t}}+\text{C}$
$=-\frac{1}{\sin^{-1}\text{x}}+\text{C}$
