Answer

$\dfrac{1}{3} (\dfrac{v}{\sqrt{1-v^2}})^3 +C$

Work Step by Step

Let us consider $v=\sin \theta \implies dv = \cos \theta d\theta$ Now, the given integral can be written as: $\int\dfrac{\sin^2 \theta \cos \theta d\theta}{\cos^5 \theta} =\dfrac{\tan^3 \theta}{3}+C $ or, $=\dfrac{1}{3} (\dfrac{v}{\sqrt{1-v^2}})^3 +C$
