Final answer to the problem
Step-by-step Solution
Learn how to solve integrals of rational functions of sine and cosine problems step by step online. Integrate the function 1/(5-3cos(x)) from 0 to pi. We can solve the integral \int\frac{1}{5-3\cos\left(x\right)}dx by applying the method Weierstrass substitution (also known as tangent half-angle substitution) which converts an integral of trigonometric functions into a rational function of t by setting the substitution. Hence. Substituting in the original integral we get. Simplifying.
