Expand out the power, leaving
$\int \sqrt[3]{\sin x} \cos x dx\\ \text{Let}\, u=\sin x\\\therefore du=\cos x \,dx$
Integrate from there.

$\int \sqrt[3]{\sin(x) \cos^3 (x)} dx \\\\ = \int \cos (x) \sqrt[3]{\sin(x)}dx \\\\ = \int \cos (x) \sin^{\frac{1}{3}} (x) dx \\\\ = \frac{3}{4} \sin^{\frac{4}{3}}(x) + C$
