Answer

$$\frac{{{x^2}}}{2}{\tan ^{ - 1}}x - \frac{1}{2}x + \frac{1}{2}{\tan ^{ - 1}}x + C$$

Work Step by Step

$$\eqalign{ & \int {x{{\tan }^{ - 1}}x} dx \cr & {\text{substitute }}u = {\tan ^{ - 1}}x,{\text{ }}du = \frac{1}{{1 + {x^2}}}dx \cr & du = xdx \cr & v = \int x dx, \cr & v = \frac{{{x^2}}}{2} \cr & {\text{using integration by parts}} \cr & \int {udv} = uv - \int {vdu} \cr & {\text{, we have}} \cr & \int {x{{\tan }^{ - 1}}x} dx = \frac{{{x^2}}}{2}{\tan ^{ - 1}}x - \int {\left( {\frac{{{x^2}}}{2}} \right)\left( {\frac{1}{{1 + {x^2}}}} \right)dx} \cr & \int {x{{\tan }^{ - 1}}x} dx = \frac{{{x^2}}}{2}{\tan ^{ - 1}}x - \frac{1}{2}\int {\frac{{{x^2}}}{{1 + {x^2}}}dx} \cr & {\text{long division}} \cr & \int {x{{\tan }^{ - 1}}x} dx = \frac{{{x^2}}}{2}{\tan ^{ - 1}}x - \frac{1}{2}\int {\left( {1 - \frac{1}{{1 + {x^2}}}} \right)dx} \cr & {\text{find antiderivative}}{\text{,}} \cr & \int {x{{\tan }^{ - 1}}x} dx = \frac{{{x^2}}}{2}{\tan ^{ - 1}}x - \frac{1}{2}\left( {x - {{\tan }^{ - 1}}x} \right) + C \cr & \int {x{{\tan }^{ - 1}}x} dx = \frac{{{x^2}}}{2}{\tan ^{ - 1}}x - \frac{1}{2}x + \frac{1}{2}{\tan ^{ - 1}}x + C \cr} $$
