Integral relation for periodic functions and their derivatives

Let w:RRw:\mathbb{R}\to\mathbb{R} be a 2π2\pi-periodic function of class C2(R)C^2(\mathbb{R}). Integral relation. The function ww satisfies

02πw(θ)1+w2(θ)dθ=02π(w(θ)+w(θ))1+w2(θ)1+w2(θ)+w2(θ)dθ.\int_0^{2\pi}\frac{w(\theta)}{\sqrt{1+w^2(\theta)}}\,d\theta=\int_0^{2\pi}\left(w(\theta)+w”(\theta)\right)\cdot\frac{\sqrt{1+w^2(\theta)}}{1+w^2(\theta)+w'^2(\theta)}\,d\theta.

The relation is presented as a generalization of an identity obtained for rosette widths, but the surrounding discussion notes that it is not characteristic of widths: some functions that are not widths still satisfy it, while the stated regularity assumption is necessary.
