Primitive of x squared over Root of a squared minus x squared cubed

Theorem

 * $\displaystyle \int \frac {x^2 \rd x} {\paren {\sqrt {a^2 - x^2} }^3} = \frac x {\sqrt {a^2 - x^2} } - \arcsin \frac x a + C$

Proof
With a view to expressing the problem in the form:
 * $\displaystyle \int u \frac {\d v} {\d x} \rd x = u v - \int v \frac {\d u} {\d x} \rd x$

let:

and let:

Then:
