\\\frac{\cos 2x}{(\sin x + \cos x)^2}\\ =\frac{cos^{2}x-sin^{2}x}{(\sin x + \cos x)^2}\\ =\frac{(\sin x + \cos x)(\cos x-\sin x)}{(\sin x + \cos x)^2} \\=\frac{(\cos x-\sin x)}{(\sin x + \cos x)}                     cos2x=cos2x-sin2x

let sinx+cosx=t,(cosx-sinx)dx=dt

hence the given integral can be written as

\\\int\frac{\cos 2x}{(\sin x + \cos x)^2}dx\\ =\int \frac{dt}{t}\\ =log|t|+c \\=log|cosx+sinx|+c

B is correct
