We can change the variable to x 2 , then the integral we want is a half of
∫ 0 1 2 ( 2 − u ) ( 1 + u ) + 3 ( 2 − u ) ( 1 + u ) u d u
Change u to 1-u, we get that the same integral is equal to
∫ 0 1 2 ( 2 − u ) ( 1 + u ) + 3 ( 2 − u ) ( 1 + u ) 1 − u d u
So, the answer is a fourth of
∫ 0 1 2 ( 2 − u ) ( 1 + u ) + 3 ( 2 − u ) ( 1 + u ) 1 d u
We let u = 2 1 + 2 3 sin ( θ ) . Note that this substitution comes from completing the square ( 2 − u ) ( 1 + u )
∫ 6 sec 2 ( θ / 2 ) d θ = 3 tan ( θ / 2 )
The limit of integration is θ = − arcsin ( 1 / 3 ) to arcsin ( 1 / 3 )
By solving 2 2 1 = 1 − x 2 2 x , we get
4 1 ⋅ 3 2 ⋅ ( 3 − 2 2 ) = 6 3 − 2 2
