Fundamental Theorem of Calculus
The theorem links differentiation and integration. If
F(x)=∫axf(t)dt, then F′(x)=f(x). More generally, by
Leibniz's rule for variable limits,
dxd∫u(x)v(x)f(t)dt=f(v(x))v′(x)−f(u(x))u′(x).
This turns an integral equation into an algebraic one. For instance, from
∫sinx1t2f(t)dt=1−sinx, differentiating both sides with
respect to x gives −(sin2x)f(sinx)cosx=−cosx, hence
f(sinx)=sin2x1, so f(t)=t21 and any required value follows.
The companion (evaluation) part, ∫abf=F(b)−F(a) for an antiderivative F,
completes the theorem. The key skill is differentiating an integral whose limits (and
integrand) contain the variable. …

By the Fundamental Theorem of Calculus, integrating a derivative just evaluates the original function at the limits.
Let h(x)=sin−1(1+x22x). Since ∫01dxd[h(x)]dx=h(1)−h(0) (Fundamental Theorem of Calculus), we only need the boundary values — no actual differentiation/integration is required.
At x=1: 1+122(1)=1, so h(1)=sin−1(1)=2π.
At x=0: 1+02(0)=0, so h(0)=sin−1(0)=0.
