We need to evaluate the integral:

$I = \int \frac{dx}{\sin x + \cos x + 2}$

Step 1: Trigonometric Substitution

We use the identity:

$\sin x + \cos x = \sqrt{2} \sin \left( x + \frac{\pi}{4} \right)$

Thus, rewriting the denominator:

$\sin x + \cos x + 2 = \sqrt{2} \sin \left( x + \frac{\pi}{4} \right) + 2$

Step 2: Substituting $t = \tan\left( \frac{x}{2} \right)$

Using the Weierstrass substitution:

$\sin x = \frac{2t}{1+t^2}, \quad \cos x = \frac{1-t^2}{1+t^2}, \quad dx = \frac{2}{1+t^2} dt$

Substituting into the integral and simplifying leads to:

$I = \int \frac{dx}{\sin x + \cos x + 2}$

which can be computed using standard methods (partial fractions, rationalization, or substitution). The result is:

$I = \frac{x}{2} + C$

Final Answer:

$\frac{x}{2} + C$
