Thread: calculus BC

i've been staring at these problems for at least an hour and still don't know where to start
can anyone give me some hints?

1.) integrate [(x^2)/(2+3x)^(1/2)] dx
2.) integrate [(x^2-25)^(1/2)/(x)] dx
i think this problem might be arcsin?? i don't know

these problems are either integration by parts (q*r-Sr*dq) or right triangles (trig)

thank you so much for any help!

After staring for an hour, you should take a break.

For the first, try . It's not too bad. No Arcsine or anything past algebra.

For the second, perhaps will lead somewhere useful.

yeah that's what i thought initially, but we are supposed to use integration by parts or right triangles

(2) Try letting

Then

Who say's you won't get around to that after the initial substitution?
