Answer

$$\frac{1}{{2a}}\tan \left( {a{x^2}} \right) + C$$

Work Step by Step

$$\eqalign{ & \int {x{{\sec }^2}\left( {a{x^2}} \right)} dx \cr & {\text{substitute }}u = a{x^2},{\text{ }}du = 2ax,{\text{ }}\frac{1}{{2a}}du = xdx \cr & = \int {x{{\sec }^2}\left( {a{x^2}} \right)} dx = \int {{{\sec }^2}\left( u \right)\left( {\frac{1}{{2a}}du} \right)} \cr & = \frac{1}{{2a}}\int {{{\sec }^2}udu} \cr & {\text{find antiderivative}} \cr & = \frac{1}{{2a}}\tan u + C \cr & {\text{write in terms of }}x \cr & = \frac{1}{{2a}}\tan \left( {a{x^2}} \right) + C \cr} $$
