Need help with this intergral

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[ \int\limits_{2x}^{x^2}\sqrt{t^2+1?}dt\]

OpenStudy (amistre64):

let t = tan(u)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I don't understand

OpenStudy (amistre64):

then you need to tell me what you dont understand.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[\int\limits_{0}^{2x?}\sqrt{t^2?} + \int\limits_{0?}^{x^2?} \sqrt{t^2+1?} \], this is what i've done thats why I dont understand why t= tan(u)

OpenStudy (amistre64):

im not sure why you would do that.

OpenStudy (amistre64):

is your question as posted part of something else?

OpenStudy (amistre64):

if we let t=tanu dt/du = sec^2 u dt = sec^2 u du subbing in we get: {S} sqrt(tan^2 u + 1) sec^2 u du {S} sec u sec^2 u du {S} sec^3 u du that should be simpler to integrate
