Step 1
The given integral is:
cosx1+sin2xdx
To solve this integral,
Consider, sinx=t..(1)
Now, differentiate equation (1) on both sides.
cosxdx=dt...(2)
From equations (1) and (2) plug these values in the given integral.
cosx1+sin2xdx=(11+t2)dt
Step 2
Now, integrate further,
cosx1+sin2xdx=tan1(t)+c
Now, from equation (1), again replace t with sin(x).
That is,
cosx1+sin2xdx=tan1(sinx)+c
cosx1+sin2xdx=tan1(tan(x1x2))+c
cosx1+sin2xdx=x1x2+c
Where c is an arbitrary constant.

cos(x)1+sin(x)2dx
We put the expression cos(x) under the differential sign, i.e.:
cos(x)dx=d(sin(x)),t=sin(x)
Then the original integral can be written as follows:
1t2+1dt
This is a tabular integral:
1t2+1dt=arctan(t)+C
To write the final The answer is, it remains to substitute sin(x) instead of t.
arctan(sin(x))+C
