Integration by parts leads to a rule for integrating inverses that usually gives good results:

The idea is to take the most complicated part of the integral, in this case ƒ ^-1(x), and simplify it first. For the integral of ln x, we get

For the integral of cos^-1 x we get

Use the formula

to evaluate the integrals. Express your answers in terms of x.
