Multiply numerator and denominator inside the root by 9−x\sqrt{9-x}: 9−xx=9−xx(9−x)=9−x9x−x2\sqrt{\dfrac{9-x}{x}}=\dfrac{9-x}{\sqrt{x(9-x)}}=\dfrac{9-x}{\sqrt{9x-x^2}}.

Split: 9∫dx9x−x2−∫x dx9x−x2\displaystyle9\int\dfrac{dx}{\sqrt{9x-x^2}}-\int\dfrac{x\,dx}{\sqrt{9x-x^2}}.

For the second piece, write x=−12(9−2x)+92x=-\dfrac12(9-2x)+\dfrac92 (since ddx(9x−x2)=9−2x\dfrac{d}{dx}(9x-x^2)=9-2x): ∫x dx9x−x2=−9x−x2+92∫dx9x−x2\displaystyle\int\dfrac{x\,dx}{\sqrt{9x-x^2}}=-\sqrt{9x-x^2}+\dfrac92\int\dfrac{dx}{\sqrt{9x-x^2}}.

Combining, the two ∫dx9x−x2\int\dfrac{dx}{\sqrt{9x-x^2}} pieces give net coefficient 9−92=929-\dfrac92=\dfrac92, plus +9x−x2+\sqrt{9x-x^2} from the sign flip. …
