The correct answer is: $(\cos \alpha, \sin \alpha)$
$\int \frac{\sin x}{\sin (x-\alpha)} \mathrm{dx}=\int \frac{\sin (x-\alpha+\alpha}{\sin (x-\alpha)} \mathrm{dx}$

$=\int \frac{\sin (x-\alpha) \cos \alpha+\cos (x-\alpha) \sin \alpha}{\sin (x-\alpha)} \mathrm{d} \mathrm{x}$

$=\int\{\cos \alpha+\sin \alpha \cot (x-\alpha)\} \mathrm{d} \mathrm{x}$

$=(\cos \alpha) x+(\sin \alpha) \log \sin (x-\alpha)+\mathrm{C}$

$\therefore \mathrm{A}=\cos \alpha, \mathrm{B}=\sin \alpha$
