1/2(x^2e^(x^2) - e^(x^2)) + C

Explanation:

Use substitution method by considering x^2 =u, so that it is x\ dx= 1/2\ du.

The given integral is thus transformed to 1/2ue^u\ du. Now integrate it by parts to have 1/2(ue^u-e^u) +C.

Now substitute back x^2 for u, to have the Integral as

1/2(x^2e^(x^2) - e^(x^2)) + C
