Integrating with trigonometric identitiesExam-style questions

Integrating trig functions that have no table entry by rewriting them first. Why sin²x is not ⅓sin³x; the cos 2x identities for squares of sine and cosine; exact values over an interval; tan² and cot² through the Pythagorean identities; products of sine and cosine through sin 2x; and squares of a multiple angle or a bracket.
