As far as I can see, your working looks OK as far as (1/4)INT(1 / (cos^2u)), except that you have failed to express the limits of integration in terms of u. (You have also used theta rather than u but that is a minor point). You should then note that 1 / (cos^2u) = sec^2u, which is a standard integral.
