Evaluate the indefinite integral:
\(\mathsf{\displaystyle\int\! \frac{x}{\sqrt{1-x^4}}\,dx}\\\\\\ \mathsf{=\displaystyle\int\! \frac{1}{2}\cdot 2\cdot \frac{1}{\sqrt{1-(x^2)^2}}\,dx}\\\\\\ \mathsf{=\displaystyle \frac{1}{2}\int\! \frac{1}{\sqrt{1-(x^2)^2}}\cdot 2x\,dx\qquad\quad(i)}\)
Make a trigonometric substitution:
\(\begin{array}{lcl}
\mathsf{x^2=sin\,t}&\quad\Rightarrow\quad&\mathsf{2x\,dx=cos\,t\,dt}\\\\
&&\mathsf{t=arcsin(x^2)\,,\qquad 0\ \textless \ x\ \textless \ \frac{\pi}{2}}\end{array}\)
so the integral (i) becomes
\(\mathsf{=\displaystyle\frac{1}{2}\int\!\frac{1}{\sqrt{1-sin^2\,t}}\cdot cos\,t\,dt\qquad\quad (but~1-sin^2\,t=cos^2\,t)}\\\\\\
\mathsf{=\displaystyle\frac{1}{2}\int\!\frac{1}{\sqrt{cos^2\,t}}\cdot cos\,t\,dt}\)
\(\mathsf{=\displaystyle\frac{1}{2}\int\!\frac{1}{cos\,t}\cdot cos\,t\,dt}\\\\\\
\mathsf{=\displaystyle\frac{1}{2}\int\!\f dt}\\\\\\
\mathsf{=\displaystyle\frac{1}{2}\,t+C}\)
Now, substitute back for t = arcsin(x²), and you finally get the result:
\(\mathsf{\displaystyle\int\! \frac{x}{\sqrt{1-(x^2)^2}}\,dx=\frac{1}{2}\,arcsin(x^2)+C}\) ✔

You could also make
x² = cos t
and you would get this expression for the integral:
\(\mathsf{\displaystyle\int\! \frac{x}{\sqrt{1-(x^2)^2}}\,dx=-\,\frac{1}{2}\,arccos(x^2)+C_2}\) ✔
which is fine, because those two functions have the same derivative, as the difference between them is a constant:
\(\mathsf{\dfrac{1}{2}\,arcsin(x^2)-\left(-\dfrac{1}{2}\,arccos(x^2)\right)}\\\\\\
=\mathsf{\dfrac{1}{2}\,arcsin(x^2)+\dfrac{1}{2}\,arccos(x^2)}\\\\\\
=\mathsf{\dfrac{1}{2}\cdot \left[\,arcsin(x^2)+arccos(x^2)\right]}\\\\\\
=\mathsf{\dfrac{1}{2}\cdot \dfrac{\pi}{2}}\)
\(\mathsf{=\dfrac{\pi}{4}}\) ✔
and that constant does not interfer in the differentiation process, because the derivative of a constant is zero.
I hope this helps. =)
