The trigonometric complex integral is
$$
int_0^{2pi} frac 1{(2+sin theta)^2} dtheta.
$$

My answer is below, and it is correct because I verified this numerically on WolframAlpha: https://www.wolframalpha.com/input/?i=%5Cint_0%5E(2pi)+1%2F%7B(2%2B%5Csin+%5Ctheta)%5E2%7D+d%5Ctheta

I applied the substitution $z=e^{itheta}$ and then used the residue theorem to obtain
begin{align*}
int_0^{2pi} frac 1{(2+sin theta)^2} dtheta &= int_{|z|=1} frac 1{(2+frac 1{2i}(z-frac 1z))^2} frac{dz}{iz} \
&= 4iint_{|z|=1} frac z{(z^2+4iz-1)^2} dz \
&= 4i cdot 2pi i operatorname{Res}_{z=(-2+sqrt 3)i} frac z{(z^2+4iz-1)^2} \
&= -8pi frac d{dz}left.left((z-(-2+sqrt 3)i)^2 frac z{(z^2+4iz-1)^2} right)rightvert_{z=(-2+sqrt 3)i} \
&= -8pi frac d{dz}left.left(frac z{(z-(-2-sqrt 3)i)^2}right)rightvert_{z=(-2+sqrt 3)i} \
&= -8pileft.left(frac{-z^2-(2+sqrt 3)^2}{(z+(2+sqrt 3)i)^4}right)rightvert_{z=(-2+sqrt 3)i} \
&= boxed{frac{4pisqrt 3}9}
