    Evaluating Integrals using the Residue THM

    Homework Statement integral |z|=1 of sinz/z2dz Homework Equations Rule #1 if f(z) has a simple pole at z0, then Res[f(z),z0] = lim(as z goes to z0) (z - z0)*f(z) Rule #2 if f(z) has a double pole at z0, then Res[f(z),z0] = lim(as z goes to z0)d/dz (z - z0)2*f(z) Rule #3 If...

    Partial Fractions Complex Decomposition

    haha, okay, couldn't I just do 1/(z+1)(z2 + 2z + 2) then 1/(z+1)(z2 + 2z + 2) = A/(z2 + 2z + 2) + B/(z+1) Then 1 = A(z+1) + B(z2 + 2z + 2) First let z = -1 solve for B, so I found B to be 1. Knowing that couldn't I let z = anything, and solve for A?
