We can solve the integral $\int\frac{1}{1-\cos\left(x\right)+\sin\left(x\right)}dx$ by applying the method Weierstrass substitution (also known as tangent half-angle substitution) which converts an integral of trigonometric functions into a rational function of $t$ by setting the substitution
Hence

We can solve the integral $\int\frac{-1}{t+1}dt$ by applying integration by substitution method (also called U-Substitution). First, we must identify a section within the integral with a new variable (let's call it $u$), which when substituted makes the integral easier. We see that $t+1$ it's a good candidate for substitution. Let's define a variable $u$ and assign it to the choosen part
Differentiate both sides of the equation $u=t+1$
Find the derivative
The derivative of a sum of two or more functions is the sum of the derivatives of each function
Now, in order to rewrite $dt$ in terms of $du$, we need to find the derivative of $u$. We need to calculate $du$, we can do that by deriving the equation above
Substituting $u$ and $dt$ in the integral and simplify
