Answer

\[6-3\sqrt 3\]

Work Step by Step

Let \[I=\int_{0}^{3}\frac{x}{\sqrt{36-x^2}}dx\] \[I=\frac{-1}{2}\int_{0}^{3}\frac{-2x}{\sqrt{36-x^2}}dx\] Put \[t=36-x^2\;\;\Rightarrow \;\; dt=-2x\:dx\] at $x=0\;\Rightarrow \;t=36$ and $x=3\;\Rightarrow \;t=27$ \[\Rightarrow I=\frac{-1}{2}\int_{36}^{27}t^{\frac{-1}{2}}\:dt\] \[\Rightarrow I=-\left[\sqrt t\right]_{36}^{27}\] \[\Rightarrow I=-\left[\sqrt {27}-\sqrt {36}\right]\] \[\Rightarrow I=6-3\sqrt 3\] Hence, \[\int_{0}^{3}\frac{x}{\sqrt{36-x^2}}dx=6-3\sqrt 3\]
