Find 
Let ![]()
Convert into sin x and cos x


![]()
Let sin x = t
As sin2x + cos2x = 1
cos2x = 1 - sin2x

Equating numerators
⇒ A (1 + t)(1 – t) + B(1 – t) + C(1 + t)2 = t …(a)
Now we will put different values of t in (a) to find values of A, B and C
Put t = -1 in (a)
⇒ B = -1/2
Put t = 1 in (a)
⇒ 4C = 1
⇒ C = 1/4
Put t = 0 in (a)
⇒ A + (-1/2) + 1/4 = 0
⇒ A = 1/2 - 1/4
⇒ A = 1/4
Put values of A, B and C in (i)

Resubstitute t = sin x

Hence ![]()
