    hey, I got an alternate solution: write the integral as xcosx/(xsinx+cos)^2. xsecx : now xcosx is the derivative of xsinx+cosx now just apply by parts and you should be able to solve it instantly.

      I am sorry if I am making a mistake, but isn't the derivative of xsinx + cosx = xcosx-sinx. Can you tell me what I am doing wrong here??

    The first sight of this integral is to induce tanx/2 ,then do it in my mind ,NOK. The second thought is the differential law of division ,and creat an function f(x) ,let f(x)*(xsinx+cosx)'-f'(x)*(xsinx+cosx)=x^2 .

      Oh dont worry. This integral is from the JEE exams in India. The integrals there aren't really tough they just need some tricks. There are thousands of coaching centres and tutors in india that teach tricks specifically suitable for solving these type of integrals. If you really want to learn integration, solve as many integrals as possible. Sometimes even terrifying integrals can be solved using u subs and integration by parts.

    I'm more interested in knowing how to approach this from first principles. These clever substitutions are clearly shortcuts leveraging foreknowledge what the answer is, and don't teach any integration techniques.
    My first instinct is to substitute x-->pi/2-x and try from there. I'm not sure if that would work.

      Now the integral becomes

Question,it is of limit as a sum topic from definite integrals,keep in mind that this exam is for 12 th graders.

    A bit late to the party but I have got an even easier and faster way to solve this
    Substitute x=tan(θ)
    Hence dx=sec^2(θ) dθ
    After substituting, multiply numerator and denominator by cos^2(θ)
    The denominator will become:
    (Sin(θ)sin(tanθ)+cos(θ)cos(tanθ))^2
    Which simplifies to (cos(θ-tanθ))^2
    Substitute tanθ - θ= u
    Hence du=dθ(sec^2θ -1)=tan^2θ dθ which is exactly what the numerator is
    Hence we get integral sec^2(u) du
    Which is pretty basic and can now be easily solved
    Btw I am going to give this monster of an exam in few months, wish me luck 😊

    *11 STEPS:*
    1. multiply and divide _x^2/(x*sin(x) + cos(x))^2_ by _(1+x^2)_
    2 "inject" _1/(1+x^2)_ into the denominator, so the integral will look as follows:
    *_integral(0, pi/4) of x^2/((1+x^2)*(sin(x)*x/(sqrt(1+x^2) + cos(x)*1/(sqrt(1+x^2))^2_*
    3. notice that the absolute value of _x/sqrt(1+x^2)_ and _1/sqrt(1+x^2)_ does not exceed 1 and the sum of the squares of these terms equals 1
    4. therefore, they can be "treated" as *_cos(u)_* and *_sin(u)_* respectively, where *_u_** = **_arcsin(1/sqrt(1+x^2))_* , so we get
    *_integral(0, pi/4) of x^2/((1+x^2)*(sin(x)*cos(arcsin(1/(sqrt(1+x^2))) + cos(x)*sin(arcsin(1/sqrt(1+x^2)))^2_*
    5. apply *sin of the sum* formula and get: *integral(0, pi/4) of x^2/((1+x^2)*(sin(x + arcsin(1/sqrt(1+x^2))))^2*
    6. notice *d(x+ arcsin(1/sqrt(1+x^2))) = x^2/(1+x^2)dx* , so we get *_integral(0, pi/4) of d(x+ arcsin(1/sqrt(1+x^2)))/sin(x+ arcsin(1/sqrt(1+x^2)))^2_* ,
    which, in fact, equals to *_-cot(x+ arcsin(1/sqrt(1+x^2)))_*
    7. _cot(0 + arcsin(0+1)) = cot(0+pi/2) = 0_
    8. compute _cos_ and _sin_ for _cot(pi/4 + arcsin(pi/4 + 1/sqrt(1+(pi/4)^2)))_ separately keeping in mind _cos(pi/4) = sin(pi/4) = 1/sqrt(2)_
    9. _cos(pi/4)*cos(arcsin(1/sqrt(1+(pi/4)^2))) - sin(p/4)*sin(arcsin(1/sqrt(1+(pi/4)^2)))=cos(pi/4)*((pi/4)/sqrt(1+(pi/4)^2) - 1/sqrt(1+(pi/4)^2))_
    10. _sin(pi/4)*cos(arcsin(1/sqrt(1+(pi/4)^2))) + cos(p/4)*sin(arcsin(1/sqrt(1+(pi/4)^2)))=cos(pi/4)*((pi/4)/sqrt(1+(pi/4)^2) + 1/sqrt(1+(pi/4)^2))_
    11. finally we get *_-cot(pi/4 + arcsin(pi/4 + 1/sqrt(1+(pi/4)^2))) = -(pi/4 - 1)/(pi/4+1)=(4-pi)/(4+pi)_*

    Another way :
    write the integrand as [(xsec(x)).xcos(x)]/(xsinx + cosx)^2
    then integrate by parts , (x secx) as 1 st function and the rest one as 2 nd function. in that way it will be much easier and straightforward... no cancelation is required.

      Yes I have calculated it this way some time ago but his way is a little bit more general
      but a little bit easier would be to calculate by parts I_{2}

    I wouldn't say that these are easy problems but doesn't require much of intuition rather focuses on how much of tricks or manipulation you can do with what you have been provided , but if you want to solve some really great problems , I would recommend you to solve problems from CMI(Chennai Mathematical Institute , India) exams , specifically from their part B of Question paper
    🙃🙃 I hope you consider my recommendation their question wouldn't disappoint you for Both Undergraduation and Post Graduation
