@Rishabh Jain – OK... but you can still contribute when you have time
Why are you not in slack?
I ⟹ 2 I ⟹ I = ∫ − 6 π 6 π sin x − cos x sin x d x = ∫ − 6 π 6 π sin ( − x ) − cos ( − x ) sin ( − x ) d x = ∫ − 6 π 6 π sin x + cos x sin x d x = ∫ − 6 π 6 π sin x − cos x sin x d x + ∫ − 6 π 6 π sin x + cos x sin x d x = ∫ − 6 π 6 π sin 2 x − cos 2 x sin x ( sin x + cos x + sin x − cos x ) d x = ∫ − 6 π 6 π sin 2 x − cos 2 x 2 sin 2 x d x = ∫ − 6 π 6 π − cos 2 x 1 − cos 2 x d x = ∫ − 6 π 6 π ( 1 − sec 2 x ) d x = x ∣ ∣ ∣ ∣ − 6 π 6 π − 2 ∫ 0 6 π sec 2 x d x = 3 π − 2 × 2 1 ln ( tan 2 x + sec 2 x ) ∣ ∣ ∣ ∣ 0 6 π = 3 π − ln ( 3 + 2 ) + ln ( 0 + 1 ) = 3 π + ln ( 3 + 2 1 ) = 3 π + ln ( 2 − 3 ) = 6 π + 2 1 ln ( 2 − 3 ) By ∫ a b f ( x ) d x = ∫ a b f ( a + b − x ) d x
⟹ A + B + C = 6 + 2 + 3 = 1 1
You could also do the standard tangent half angle substitution.
Great solution! : )
The theorem highlighted in blue, what theorem is that?

I learned it in Brilliant. Anyway, you can derive it by letting y = a + b − x . Try it.
I don't know how to do this in LaTeX but A + B + C = 6 + 2 + 3 = 1 1
Numerator can be rewritten as 0.5(sinx-cosx)+0.5(sinx+cosx) split the denominator and use small substitution to find answer orally
split into interval -pi/6 to 0 and 0 to pi/6 . Then after basic manipulation we get 2sin^2 x in num and -cos2x in denominator .Add and subtract cos^2 x in numerator

Write numerator as 2 1 ⋅ 2 sin x = 2 1 ( ( sin x − cos x ) + ( sin x + cos x ) ) so that integration ( I ) is:
I = 2 1 ∫ − π / 6 π / 6 ⎝ ⎜ ⎜ ⎛ 1 + sin x − cos x sin x + cos x d ( sin x − cos x ) ⎠ ⎟ ⎟ ⎞ d x
= 6 π + [ 2 1 ln ∣ sin x − cos x ∣ ] − π / 6 π / 6
= 6 π + 2 1 ln ( 2 − 3 )
Hence, 6 + 2 + 3 = 1 1
