Question:medium

The value of $\int_{0}^{\frac{\pi}{2}}\frac{\cos^{11}x}{\cos^{11}x+\sin^{11}x}dx$ is equal to} \textit{Note: The original exam paper contained a typographical error ($c\hat{D}$ instead of $dx$). It has been corrected here to permit a valid solution.

Show Hint

Logic Tip: Any definite integral of the form $\int_{0}^{\pi/2} \frac{f(\sin x)}{f(\sin x) + f(\cos x)} dx$ will always evaluate to exactly half of the upper limit, which is $\frac{\pi}{4}$. The power $11$ is purely a distractor!
