Maclaurin expansion of $\arcsin x$ I'm trying to find the first five terms of the Maclaurin expansion of $\arcsin x$, possibly using the fact that
$$\arcsin x = \int_0^x \frac{dt}{(1-t^2)^{1/2}}.$$
I can only see that I can interchange differentiation and integration but not sure how to go about this. Thanks!

If I was doing this I would start with one of the very common series like $\sin(x)$, $e^x$, etc. and then use substitution. The one that fits best here in my opinion is:
 $$
\sqrt{1+x} = 1 + \frac{x}{2} - \frac{x^2}{8} + \frac{x^3}{16} - \frac{5x^4}{128} + \dotsc
$$
Through substitution, we can obtain:
$$
\frac{1}{\sqrt{1-x^2}} = 1 + \frac{x^2}{2} + \frac{3x^4}{8} + \frac{5x^6}{16} + \frac{35x^8}{128} + \dotsc
$$
Then by integration:
$$
\arcsin(x) = \int^x_0 \frac{1}{\sqrt{1-t^2}}\,dt = x + \frac{x^3}{6} + \frac{3x^5}{40} + \frac{5x^7}{112} + \frac{35x^9}{1152} + \dotsc
$$
