FORMULA
Equals Integral_{t=0..arccos(2/3)} t * P(t) dt, where P(t) = P1(t) if 0 <= t <= Pi/4, and P1(t) + P2(t) if Pi/4 < t <= arccos(2/3), and where
P1(t) = (288/Pi^2) * sin(t) * (Pi^2/32 - Integral_{x=0..Pi/4} arcsin(tan(t/2)*cos(x)) dx),
P2(t) = -(288/Pi^2) * sin(t) * (Pi*g(t)/4 - Integral_{x=Pi/4-g(t)..Pi/8+g(t)} arcsin(tan(t/2)*cos(x)) dx),
g(t) = arcsin(sqrt(((sqrt(2) + 1)^2 * tan(t/2)^2 - 1)/(4 * sqrt(2) * tan(t/2)^2))).
