Question: How to Integrate Root (1-x^2)?

That is, find $\int \sqrt{1-x^2} dx$.

Solution:

Let x = sint.

So dx = cost dt

Also, we have

  • sin2t = 2sint cost = 2sint $\sqrt{1-\sin^2t}$ = 2x$\sqrt{1-x^2}$ …(∗)
  • t = sin-1x …(∗∗)

Now, $\int \sqrt{1-x^2} dx$

= $\int \sqrt{1-\sin^2t} \cos t \,dt$

= $\int \cos^2 t \, dt$ as we know cos2θ=1-sin2θ

= $\dfrac{1}{2}\int 2\cos^2 t \,dt$

= $\dfrac{1}{2}\int (1+\cos 2t) dt$ as 1+cos2θ = 2cos2θ.

= $\dfrac{1}{2} \big(t+\dfrac{\sin 2t}{2} \big)$+C

= $\dfrac{1}{2} \big(\sin^{-1}x+\dfrac{2x\sqrt{1-x^2}}{2} \big)$+C, using Equations (∗) and (∗∗).

= $\dfrac{x}{2} \sqrt{1-x^2}$ $+\dfrac{1}{2}$sin-1 x+C.

So the integration of $\sqrt{1-x^2}$ is equal to $\int \sqrt{1-x^2} dx$ $=\dfrac{x}{2} \sqrt{1-x^2}$ $+\dfrac{1}{2}$ sin-1 x+C, where C is an integration constant.
