I=ln(csc(x)+cot(x))+x+C

Explanation:

We want to solve

I=cos2(x)sin(x)+sin(x)+1dx

Rewrite the integrand

I=1sin2(x)sin(x)+sin(x)+1dx

I=csc(x)sin(x)+sin(x)+1dx

I=csc(x)+1dx

I=csc(x)+1dx

We know the integral of cosecant as (otherwise look here )

I1=csc(x)dx=ln(|csc(x)+cot(x)|)+C

Thus

I=ln(|csc(x)+cot(x)|)+x+C
