IMO Integration Problem: Evaluate $\displaystyle\int^{\dfrac{\pi}{4}}_0 \dfrac{x}{(\sin x+\cos x)\cos x}\ dx$.

Evaluate $\displaystyle\int^{\dfrac{\pi}{4}}_0 \dfrac{x}{(\sin x+\cos x)\cos x}\ dx$.

Solving for this problem is a breeze if you're someone who is so sensitive about the possibility of the existence of property of symmetry for the integrand function involved.
