Evaluate the following integrals:

Tip – If f1(x) and f2(x) are two functions , then an integral of the form
can be INTEGRATED BY PARTS as
where f1(x) and f2(x) are the first and second functions respectively.
Taking f1(x) = sin-1x and f2(x) = 1/x2,

Taking x= sina, dx = cosada
Hence, coseca=1/x
Now, cosec2a-cot2a = 1 so cota=√(1-x2)/x

Replacing the value of a, we get,
![]()

The total integration yields as
, where c is the integrating constant
