Solving the integrals αsinx+βcosxasinx+bcosxdx

I found this as a problem in a book, I solved it, and I kind of liked it. 

So I am going to share the end result here.

The solution to the integral 

αsinx+βcosxasinx+bcosxdx 

is the antiderivative function 

F(x)=Ax+Bln|asinx+bcosx|  

where 

A=αa+βba2+b2

B=βaαba2+b2

One can verify this by differentiating F(x).

The original problem, the one which I encountered was actually asking to find the constants A and B.
