How do I solve int_0^1sin(x)/(sin(x)+sin(1-x))dx?

int_0^1sin(x)/(sin(x)+sin(1-x))dx
I tried to solve this by making a u-substitution, where u=1-x.
u=1-x
x=1-u
int_0^1sin(1-u)/(sin(1-u)+sin(u))dx
But now, I'm stuck again. I'm not sure what to do from here.

I=1/2
NOTE: I=int_0^1sin(1-u)/(sin(1-u)+sin(u))du=int_0^1sin(1-x)/(sin(1-x)+sin(x))dx
Then adding this with given equ^n,we get,I+I=2I and so on...

Explanation:

We note that.color(red)((1)I=int_a^bf(x)dx=int_a^bf(t)dt=>),
The value of I is not dependent on variable tox,t,u...etc.
color(red)((2)I=int_0^af(x)dx=int_0^af(a-x)dx,) If f is continuous on[0,a].
I=int_0^1(sinx)/(sinx+sin(1-x))dx.........to (A)
Applying above theorem (2) we get,I=int_0^1(sin(1-x))/(sin(1-x)+sin(x))dx.......to (B)
Adding (A) and (B) ,i.e .(A)+(B)=>I+I=2I
2I=int_0^1(sinx)/(sinx+sin(1-x))dx+int_0^1(sin(1-x))/(sin(1-x)+sin(x))dxDenominator of both integrals are same.
2I=int_0^1(sinx+sin(1-x))/(sinx+sin(1-x))dx=int_0^1(1)dx=[x]_0^1=1-0
2I=1=>I=1/2
