Oct 16, 2015 at 7:19 comment added Igor Khavkine You ma want to look at Handbook of Elliptic Integrals for Engineers and Scientists by Byrd and Friedman (Springer, 1971). It contains many explicit formulas of this kind. Moreover, early in the book, they discuss how to reduce general elliptic integrals (with integrands rational in the square root of a polynomial up to degree four) to the standard ones (first, second or third kind).

Oct 16, 2015 at 4:14 comment added Stanley Yao Xiao @Suvrit admittedly, my skill at using mathematica is limited, as I am not familiar with its ability to do symbolic manipulation. But yes, I would like an explicit argument
Oct 16, 2015 at 4:11 comment added Suvrit Mathematica yields the last integral instantly, so why "suspect"? Or are you looking for an explicit proof?
