From (8.19-9) it follows that
and
Also,

Therefore, we have

Again, if the given strip contains the real axis, we may take b = 0 and
the formulas for the coefficients reduce to

f(x)sin27rnxdx
Example Let f(z) = tan7rz. This function is analytic and of period 1
in any horizontal strip that does not contain the real axis since the only
singularities of tan7rz are at the real points ±%(2k + 1), k = O, 1, 2, ....
We have
But

valid for lwl < 1. Hence we obtain
f(z) = i(l - 2e27l"iz + 2e47l"iz - 2e67l"iz + .. -)
