Homework Statement
I have a problem with this integral:
##\int_{x_0}^x \frac{dx}{\sqrt{2-2\cos{x}}}##
Homework Equations
The Attempt at a Solution
I came across this while reading a book and the author says that this can be written in the form ##\int_{x_0}^x \frac{dx}{2\sin{\frac{x}{2}}}##. I don't see how this can be achieved. What identity is used here for the trigonometric functions? Or this is an integral trick?
