let put cosθ=t I= ∫_0 ^(π/2) (dx/(1+tcosx)) the ch.tan((x/2))=u give I= ∫_0 ^∞ (1/(1+t ((1−u^2 )/(1+u^2 )))) ((2du)/(1+u^2 )) I = ∫_0 ^∞ ((2du)/(1+u^2 +t(1−u^2 )))du =∫_0 ^∞ ((2du)/(1+t +(1−t)u^2 ))= (2/(1+t))∫_0 ^∞ (du/(1+((1−t)/(1+t)) u^2 )) let tben use the ch. (√((1−t)/(1+t))) u= α ⇒ I= (2/(1+t))∫_0 ^∞ (1/(1+α^2 )) (√((1+t)/(1−t))) dα = (2/(√(1−t^2 ))) ∫_0 ^∞ (dα/(1+α^2 )) = (π/(√(1−t^2 ))) = (π/(√(1−cos^2 θ)))⇒ I = (π/(∣sinθ∣)) if θ≠0 also we must study the case θ=0 ....
