Explanation:
i'll put the graph in at the end as its already crashed me once
for a small element of
So
The question is whether the integral will converge so we plough on
the graph ....showing the symmetry etc follows
graph{1/sqrt(1+x^2) [-5, 5, -2.5, 2.5]}
And a plot of Arctan x
graph{arctan (x) [-5, 5, -2.5, 2.5]}
