integral cos(t)/1+sin(t)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

It's a weird trigo substitution, \(t=\tan\dfrac{x}{2}\). Find out more here http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tangent_half-angle_substitution

OpenStudy (yttrium):

is it just let z = 1+sint dz = cost hence, \[\frac{ dz }{ z }\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Or, if you're integrating over a period, there's a neat method using complex analysis, but the sub should suit your needs.

OpenStudy (yttrium):

am i wrong there?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

And of course, there's always the quick and easy substitution @Yttrium :P

Sorry, got ahead of myself there.
