TO calculate the continious integral of : 1/(1 + cos(theta))

You need to use the substitution
+ y^2)



theta)/(2cos^2(theta/2)) =gt d theta = (2(1 - y^2)dy)/(1 +
y^2)



y^2)dy)/(1 + y^2)/((1 + y^2 +1 - y^2)/(1 + y^2))


 
(2(1 - y^2)dy)/(1 + y^2 +1 - y^2) = 2int ((1 -
y^2)dy)/2



- y^3/3 + c


You need to come back to the original variable
such that:



(tan^3 (theta/2))/3 + c


Hence, evaluating
the given integral yields:
(theta/2))/3 + c
