Homework Statement
Evaluate the following integral for 0<r<1 by writing [tex]\cos\theta = \frac{1}{2}(e^{i\theta} + e^{-i\theta})[/tex] reducing the given integral to a complex integral over the unit circle.
[tex]Evaluate: \displaystyle{\frac{1}{2\pi}\int_0^{2\pi}\frac{1}{1-2r\cos\theta + r^2}\,d\theta}[/tex]

The Attempt at a Solution
[tex]\displaystyle\cos\theta = \frac{1}{2}(e^{i\theta} + e^{-i\theta})}[/tex]
[tex]\displaystyle{z=e^{i\theta}}[/tex]
[tex]\displaystyle{ \cos t= \frac{1}{2}(z+ \frac{1}{z})}[/tex]
[tex]\displaystyle{\frac{dz}{iz}= dt}[/tex]
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
[tex]\displaystyle{\frac{1}{2\pi}\oint \frac{1}{1-2r[\frac{1}{2}(z+\frac{1}{z})]+r^2}\,\frac{dz}{iz}}[/tex]
[tex]\displaystyle{\frac{1}{2\pi}\oint \frac{1}{z-2rz[\frac{1}{2}(z+\frac{1}{z})]+r^2}\,\frac{dz}{i}}[/tex]
[tex]\displaystyle{\frac{-i}{2\pi}\oint \frac{1}{z-2rz[\frac{1}{2}(z+\frac{1}{z})]+r^2}\,dz}[/tex]
[tex]\displaystyle{\frac{-i}{2\pi}\oint \frac{1}{z-r^2z^2-r+r^2}\,dz}[/tex]
But I get stuck here. What do I do with the "r"? Should I factor it out, and if yes then how?
Thanks
