To solve the integral, we will first simplify the expression involving the Chebyshev polynomial of the second kind, Un(x)U_n(x).

Step 1: Simplify the argument of UnU_n.
Let x=atan⁡θx = a \tan \theta. Then dx=asec⁡2θ dθdx = a \sec^2 \theta \, d\theta.
When x=0x=0, θ=0\theta=0. When x→∞x \to \infty, θ→π/2\theta \to \pi/2.
The term (a2+x2)1/2(a^2 + x^2)^{1/2} becomes (a2+a2tan⁡2θ)1/2=(a2sec⁡2θ)1/2=asec⁡θ(a^2 + a^2 \tan^2 \theta)^{1/2} = (a^2 \sec^2 \theta)^{1/2} = a \sec \theta.
The argument of $U_
