Cauchy's Integral Theorem - use partial fractions to solve integral?

[QUOTE="dla, post: 4444944, member: 478960"] [h2]Homework Statement [/h2] Find the integral and determine whether Cauchy's Theorem applies. Use partial fractions. [itex]\large \oint \frac{tan \frac{z}{2}}{z^{4} -16} dz[/itex] C the boundary of the square with vertices ±1, ±i cw [h2]Homework Equations[/h2][h2]The Attempt at a Solution[/h2] I just wanted to check if approach is correct. Since tan is not analytic at ±∏ which does not lie within the square, can I just take out the tan and solve using partial then multiply it back in? I would have four terms since z^4-16 has four solutions but how would I evaluate each term. The integral I got is [itex]\huge - \oint \frac{tan \frac{z}{2}}{32(z+2)} + \oint \frac{tan \frac{z}{2}}{32(z-2)} - \oint \frac{itan \frac{z}{2}}{32(z+2i)} + \oint \frac{itan \frac{z}{2}}{32(z-2i)}[/itex] I can't seem to evaluate it. This section is before Cauchy's Integral Formula so I can't use that yet.. It only talks about Cauchy's Integral Theorem [/QUOTE]
