Integrals Involving Inverse Trigonometric Functions.The derivatives of the Inverse trig functions fall into three pairs, where one is just the negative of its paired function.Arcsin and arccos pair up, arctan and arccot pair up, and arcsec and arccsc pair up. The main three rules are below.

Completing the Square:Helps when quadratic function is involved in the integrand. Just to remind you of the process, start with lead coefficient of 1. 2 2 2 2

If the lead coefficient is not one, factor it out before completing the square. This also works if it is a negative lead coefficient.

Looking at derivative rules, you now have a way to differentiate any elementary function. With integration this is far from true. We have to make things fit the right form or we can’t integrate.
