What substitution should I notice in this integral?
$begingroup$
I've solved this integral by partial integration method ('u' is first fraction and dv is the second fraction), but I've been told that there is a much simpler method using substitution which I can't see.I've tried to substitute arcsin(x) which eliminates the root and leaves me with sin functions in the integral (it didn't help).
$$int frac {arcsin(x)}{sqrt {1-x^2}} * frac {1+x^2}{x^2} dx$$

You're going to have to use integration by parts at some point. But as Harnak said, we can use $u$ substituion to have a much easier time. Let $u = arcsin(x)$. Then
begin{align*}
int frac{arcsin(x)}{sqrt{1-x^2}} (frac{1+x^2}{x^2}) dx &= int u(1+csc^2(u))du \
&=frac{u^2}{2} +int ucsc^2(u) du \
&= frac{u^2}{2} - ucot(u) + int cot(u)du \
&= frac{u^2}{2} - ucot(u)+lnmidsin(u)mid+C
end{align*}
From this point, make the necessary substitutions back in and simplify.

Hint: try the following substitution $$t= arcsin(x)$$
and remember the derivative of arcsine.

Are you sure it works ?

It works according to wolframalpha.I've already tried this method, this gives me integral t* (1+sin^2 (t))/ sin^2 (t).I'm not sure how to proceed from here.Maybe trigonometric substitutions (t=tan(x/2))?

int frac{arcsin(x)}{sqrt{1-x^2}} (frac{1+x^2}{x^2}) dx &= int u(1+csc^2(u))du \
&=frac{u^2}{2} +int ucsc^2(u) du \
&= frac{u^2}{2} - ucot(u) + int cot(u)du \
&= frac{u^2}{2} - ucot(u)+lnmidsin(u)mid+C
end{align*}
From this point, make the necessary substitutions back in and simplify.
