Hi there have i got this right if someone could check please? z=x+\imath{}y Find the real and imaginary parts z+(1/z) sub x+\imath{}y + \frac{1}{x+\imath{}y} if we multiply by x+\imath{}y and i get as the real part as x^2-y^2+1. Have i got this right? Thanks in advance

No. First step.. I'd deal with the fractional part. Multiply the numerator and denominator by the complex conjugate of the denominator, and simplify. That's how you divide by a complex number anyway..

Prove $$\int\limits_0^{\sqrt2/4}\frac{1}{\sqrt{x-x^2}}\arcsin\sqrt{\frac{(x-1)\left(x-1+x\sqrt{9-16x}\right)}{1-2x}} \, \mathrm dx = \frac{\pi^2}{8}.$$ Let $$I = \int\limits_0^{\sqrt 2 / 4}\frac{1}{\sqrt{x-x^2}}\arcsin\sqrt{\frac{(x-1)\left(x-1+x\sqrt{9-16x}\right)}{1-2x}} \, \mathrm dx. \tag{1}$$ The representation integral of ##\arcsin## is $$\arcsin u = \int\limits_{0}^{1} \frac{\mathrm dt}{\sqrt{1-t^2}}, \qquad 0 \leqslant u \leqslant 1.$$ Plugging identity above into ##(1)## with ##u...
