Question
Evalute the following integrals:
$\int\frac{-\sin\text{x}+2\cos\text{x}}{2\sin\text{x}+\cos\text{x}}\text{dx}$

Answer

Let $\text{I}=\int\frac{-\sin\text{x}+2\cos\text{x}}{2\sin\text{x}+\cos\text{x}}\text{dx}\ .....\text{(i)}$
Let $2\sin\text{x}+\cos\text{x}=\text{t}$ then,
$\text{d}(2\sin\text{x}+\cos\text{x})=\text{dt}$
$\Rightarrow(2\cos\text{x}-\sin\text{x})\text{dx}=\text{dt}$
$\Rightarrow\text{dx}=\frac{\text{dt}}{-\sin\text{x}+2\cos\text{x}}$
Putting $2\sin\text{x}+\cos\text{x}=\text{t and dx}=\frac{\text{dt}}{-\sin\text{x}+2\cos\text{x}}$ in equation (i), we get,
$\text{I}=\int\frac{-\sin\text{x}+2\cos\text{x}}{\text{t}}\times\frac{\text{dt}}{-\sin\text{x}+2\cos\text{x}}$
$=\int\frac{\text{dt}}{\text{t}}$
$=\log|\text{t}|+\text{C}$
$=\log|2\sin\text{x}+\cos\text{x}|+\text{C}$
$\therefore\text{I}=\log|2\sin\text{x}+\cos\text{x}|+\text{C}$
