Your syntax is wrong ....

Start with your kernel & give your variables numerical values:-

(hillb*((f0 + hilla)/(2*Pi*f*a*Cos[ArcSin[x/a]] + hillb))) - hilla /.
{hilla->3, hillb->50, f0->8, a->1, f->1}

Note differences between your pi & the way that functions are defined --
square brackets vs. round ones.

This kernel can be integrated using:-
	Integrate[%, {x, -1, 1}]

which has a numerical value of:-

	N[%]

Regards,

Dave.
