226 CHAPTER 6 • COMPLEX INTEGRATION
The points z = ±i./2 lie interior to ct (0), so Corollary 6.1 implies that

Solution Recall that Ct (i) is the circle { z : lz -i i = 1} having positive ori-
entation. Using partial fractions again, we haver ~dz= r dz + r dz.
l c:(i) z^2 + 2 l c:(i) z + i./2 l c:(i) z - ivl2In this case, z = iJ2 lies interior to Ct (i) but z = -iJ2 does not, as shown
in Figure 6.27. By Corollary 6.1, the second integral on the right side of this
equation has the value 27ri. The first integral equals zero by the Cauchy- Goursat
theorem because the function f (z) = •+!,/2 is analytic on a simply connecteddomain that contains Ci (i). Thus,
r ~ dz = 0 + 27ri = 21Ti.
