Answer

\[3π\]

Work Step by Step

Let \[I=\int_{\frac{-1}{\sqrt 2}}^{\frac{1}{\sqrt 2}}\frac{6}{\sqrt {1-p^2}}dp\;\;\;...(1)\] We will use the property , if $f(-x)=f(x)$ then \[\int_{-a}^{a}f(x)\:dx=2\int_{0}^{a}f(x)\:dx\;\;\;...(2)\] Using (2) in (1) \[I=2\int_{0}^{\frac{1}{\sqrt 2}}\frac{6}{\sqrt {1-p^2}}dp\] \[I=12\int_{0}^{\frac{1}{\sqrt 2}}\frac{1}{\sqrt {1-p^2}}dp\] \[I=12\left[\sin^{-1}p\right]_{0}^{\frac{1}{\sqrt 2}}\] \[I=12\left[\sin^{-1}(\frac{1}{\sqrt 2})-\sin^{-1} (0)\right]\] \[I=12\left(\frac{π}{4}\right)\] \[I=3π\] Hence $I=3π$
