A u-substitution would properly simplify the integrand, where 

Now, the problem can be rewritten entirely in terms of u:

The problem may seem finished, but the original integrand was expressed in terms of . Therefore, the final answer is, in fact:

There are no apparent substitutions for solving this integral, but the integral can be expressed as the sum of two separate integrals because this is a property of indefinite integrals.

The first integral can be solved with a simple u-substitution where . 

The integral can be rewritten as:

To finally solve this, there is no other way to do so other than knowing the following: 

Finally, the answer must be expressed in terms of :

The second integral is a bit more complicated. It can be noted that the second integral resembles the following:

Specifically, . The second integral can be rewritten as:

With each separate integral found, the answers can be added to equal the original integral:

To solve this, you can use a u-substitution where

.

Now, the integrand can be completely rewritten in terms of u:

Before trying to further solve this integral in a more complicated way, by remembering what u equals, the integrand can be rewritten as:

The integral was taken by using the following formula:

The original problem was in terms of x. Therefore, the final answer is:

This integral, , is a classic integration by substation problem. This is indicated by the presence of a composite function in which both a function and its derivative are present. 

For this we need to let our variable  , substituting this into our integral we produce the following:

and by substituting back in for u we find our final answer to be:
.

                                                    (1)

To compute this integral we will use a trigonometric substitution. First we need to do some algebra to write the integrated in a more suitable form, 

                                               (2)

Now we can apply a trigonometric substitution. 

                                                   (3)

                                         (4)

Notice we've chosen this substitution so that the radicand in equation (2) will conveniently reduce as follows, 

So now we have  , we need to convert back to , use equation (3), 

                                                       (1)

1) Simplify with a substitution. 

It is often necessary to define a new variable , carefully chosen so that rewriting the integrand in terms of this new variable will make integration easier. In this case, the obvious variable to introduce will be defined by, 

                                                                      (2)

 2) Use integration by parts

To compute  use integration by parts. Ignore the constant out front for the moment, 

                                                 (4)

Define  and  and insert into the equation (4). 

 ,

                                               (5)

Let's factor the non-constant terms in equation (5), this will make the result easier to express when we convert back to 

We previously had a constant in front of the integral, 

Now we can write the integral terms of the original variable  by substituting equation (2) into the previous expression to obtain,
