i dont know if it help but  sin x=Σ_(n=0) ^(+∞) (−1)^n (x^(2n+1) /((2n+1)!))=x−(x^3 /6)+∙∙∙  cos x=Σ_(n=0) ^(+∞) (−1)^n (x^(2n) /((2n)!))=1−(x^2 /2)+∙∙∙
idontknowifithelpbutsinx=+n=0(1)nx2n+1(2n+1)!=xx36+cosx=+n=0(1)nx2n(2n)!=1x22+

you can do a series expansion of sin(cos θ)  and integrate.  Integral cannot be expressed in terms of  elementry functions alone.
