Show that $\int_{-\infty}^\infty \frac{e^x}{e^{2x}+e^{2a}}\frac{1}{x^2+\pi^2}dx = \frac{2\pi e^{-a}}{4a^2+\pi^2}-\frac{1}{1+e^{2a}}$
Show that\begin{align*}
\int_{-\infty}^\infty \frac{e^x}{e^{2x}+e^{2a}}\frac{1}{x^2+\pi^2}dx = \frac{2\pi e^{-a}}{4a^2+\pi^2}-\frac{1}{1+e^{2a}}
\end{align*}where $a\in \mathbb{R}$.
My SOLUTION
Let $\...
