Can these integrals be solved by u-substitution using trig identities?

$int frac{operatorname{sin} x}{2sin xcos x+5}dx$



$int frac{operatorname{sin}xcos x}{operatorname{sin}x+cos x}dx$



$int frac{dx}{operatorname{sin} x+cos x}$



I'd like to know if there's a way to solve some of these integrals by manipulating it and then doing u substitution, I tried but I'm not very good at trig identities. I got the second one like this:



$int frac{operatorname{sin}2x(operatorname{sin}x-cos x)}{cos 2x}dx$ but didn't know how to go from there.

Assuming $operatorname{sen}$ is synonymous with $sin$, the third integral is $$inttfrac{1}{sqrt{2}}csc (x+tfrac{pi}{4})dx=-tfrac{1}{sqrt{2}}ln |csc (x+tfrac{pi}{4})+cot (x+tfrac{pi}{4})|+C=-tfrac{1}{sqrt{2}}ln |cot (tfrac{x}{2}+tfrac{pi}{8})|+C,$$while the first integral is very messy (although integrating it between certain limits might be neater). Just to expand on lab bhattacharjee's treatment of the second integral,$$intfrac{1}{sqrt{8}}frac{sin (2y-tfrac{pi}{2})}{sin y}dy=-intfrac{1}{sqrt{8}}frac{cos 2y}{sin y}dy=intfrac{2sin y-csc y}{sqrt{8}}dy\=frac{-2cos y+ln|csc y+cot y|}{sqrt{8}}+C=frac{-2cos (x+tfrac{pi}{4})+ln|cot (tfrac{x}{2}+tfrac{pi}{8})|}{sqrt{8}}+C.$$

      For the first one, write numerator as $$dfrac{2sin x}{2sin xcos x+5}=dfrac{sin x-cos x}{2(2sin xcos x+5)}+dfrac{sin x+cos x}{2(2sin xcos x+5)}$$



      For the first part, write $$int(sin x-cos x)dx=u, u^2=1+2sin xcos xiffsin xcos x=?$$



      For the second, $$int(sin x+cos x)dx=v, v^2=1-2sin xcos xiffsin xcos x=?$$$
