Given equation is
(1 + x^2)dy + 2xydx = \cot x dx\ (x\neq 0)
we can rewrite it as
\frac{dy}{dx}+\frac{2xy}{(1+x^2)}= \frac{\cot x}{1+x^2}
This is  \frac{dy}{dx} + py = Q  type where p = \frac{2x}{1+ x^2} and Q =\frac{\cot x}{1+x^2}
Now,
I.F. = e^{\int pdx}= e^{\int \frac{2x}{1+ x^2} dx}= e^{\log(1+ x^2)} = 1+x^2                     
Now, the solution of the given differential equation is given by the relation
y(I.F.) =\int (Q\times I.F.)dx +C
y(1+x^2) =\int ((\frac{\cot x}{1+x^2})\times (1+ x^2))dx +C
y(1+x^2) =\int \cot x dx+C\\ \\ y(1+x^2)= \log |\sin x|+ C\\ \\ y = (1+x^2)^{-1}\log |\sin x|+C(1+x^2)^{-1}
Therefore, the general solution is   y = (1+x^2)^{-1}\log |\sin x|+C(1+x^2)^{-1}
