Answer
$\int\frac{1}{\text{x}^2}\cos^2\Big(\frac{1}{\text{x}}\Big)\text{dx}$
Let $\frac{1}{\text{x}}=\text{t}$
$\Rightarrow-\frac{1}{\text{x}^2}=\frac{\text{dt}}{\text{dx}}$
$\Rightarrow\frac{1}{\text{x}^2}\text{ dx}=-\text{dt}$
Now, $\int\frac{1}{\text{x}^2}\cos^2\Big(\frac{1}{\text{x}}\Big)\text{dx}$
$=-\int\cos^2\text{t}\ \text{dt}$
$=-\int\Big(\frac{1+\cos2\text{t}}{2}\Big)\text{dt}$
$=-\frac{1}{2}\int(1+\cos2\text{t})\text{dt}$
$=-\frac{1}{2}\Big[\text{t}+\frac{\sin2\text{t}}{2}\Big]+\text{C}$
$=-\frac{1}{2}\Bigg[\frac{1}{\text{x}}+\frac{\sin\big(\frac{2}{\text{x}}\big)}{2}\Bigg]+\text{C}$
$=-\frac{1}{2}\Big(\frac{1}{\text{x}}\Big)-\frac{1}{4}\sin\Big(\frac{2}{\text{x}}\Big)+\text{C}$
Let $\frac{1}{\text{x}}=\text{t}$
$\Rightarrow-\frac{1}{\text{x}^2}=\frac{\text{dt}}{\text{dx}}$
$\Rightarrow\frac{1}{\text{x}^2}\text{ dx}=-\text{dt}$
Now, $\int\frac{1}{\text{x}^2}\cos^2\Big(\frac{1}{\text{x}}\Big)\text{dx}$
$=-\int\cos^2\text{t}\ \text{dt}$
$=-\int\Big(\frac{1+\cos2\text{t}}{2}\Big)\text{dt}$
$=-\frac{1}{2}\int(1+\cos2\text{t})\text{dt}$
$=-\frac{1}{2}\Big[\text{t}+\frac{\sin2\text{t}}{2}\Big]+\text{C}$
$=-\frac{1}{2}\Bigg[\frac{1}{\text{x}}+\frac{\sin\big(\frac{2}{\text{x}}\big)}{2}\Bigg]+\text{C}$
$=-\frac{1}{2}\Big(\frac{1}{\text{x}}\Big)-\frac{1}{4}\sin\Big(\frac{2}{\text{x}}\Big)+\text{C}$
