   Do not mind, Maple has a bug:   
      
   expr:= log(1 + 2*a*cos(2*x) + a^2)*sin(x)^2:   
   R:=Int(expr,x=0..Pi/2);        # task   
   r:= value(%) assuming 1 < a^2; # result   
      
   Now check:   
      
   R=r; eval(%, a=3/2);   
   evalf(%);                      # using 15 decimals   
                                                                  -13

   Ignoring the spurious imaginary it has false sign, at least.
