Go !

leeeeeeet's

#x = cos(t)#
#arccos(x) = t#

#dx = -sin(t) dt#

Integral become

#-int (sin^2(t))^(3/2)/cos^6(t)*sin(t)dt#

#-int sin^4(t)/cos^6(t)#

#-int tan^4(t)* 1/cos^2(t)dt#

Let's #u = tan(t)#

#du = 1/cos^2(t) dt#

Integral become

#-intu^4du#

#-[1/5u^5]#

Substitute back

#-[1/5tan^5(t)]#

#-[1/5tan^5(arccos(x))]#

You can simplify in

#-(1 - x^2)^(5/2)/(5 x^5)#
