Answer

$(\theta^2+1)^{3/2}+c$

Work Step by Step

Since, we know $\int x^{n} dx=\dfrac{x^{n+1}}{n+1}+c$ where $c$ is a constant of proportionality. Substitute $k=\theta^2+1 \implies 2\theta d\theta =dk$ Now, $\int 3 \theta \sqrt {\theta^2+1} d \theta=\dfrac{3}{2} \int (\theta^2+1)^2 (2\theta d\theta)=\dfrac{3}{2} \int k^{1/2} dk $ or, $=\dfrac{3}{2} [\dfrac{k^{1/2+1}}{1/2+1}]+c$ or, $=k^{3/2}+c$ plug back in: $k=\theta^2+1 $ Thus, $=(\theta^2+1)^{3/2}+c$
