why does $\pi$ always show up in $\int_0 ^1 \frac{x^c}{1+x^k} dx$ if $c\neq mk-1$ for all $m \in \mathbb{N}$
when I posted this question I was interested in the sum $ \sum_{n=0} ^{\infty} \frac{(-1)^n}{4n+3}$ but when I thought about the generalised sum $ \sum_{n=0} ^{\infty} \frac{(-1)^n}{kn+c +1}$ for all $...

How to evaluate $ \sum\limits_{k=0} ^{\infty} \frac{(-1)^k}{4k+3}$?
I was trying to solve the integral $\int_0 ^{\frac{\pi}{4}} \sqrt{\tan{x}}dx$ and I noticed I can do the following:
$$\int_0 ^{\frac{\pi}{4}} \sqrt{\tan{x}}dx=\int_0 ^{\frac{\pi}{4}} \sqrt{\tan{x}} \...

Generating Function $\sum_{k=1}^{\infty}\binom{2k}{k}^{-2}x^{k}$
Closed Form For :
$$S=\sum_{k=1}^{\infty}\binom{2k}{k}^{-2}x^{k}$$
Using the Series Expansion for $\arcsin^2(x)$ one can arrive at :
$$\sum_{k=0}^{\infty}\binom{2k}{k}^{-1}x^{k}=\frac{4}{4-x}-4\arcsin\...

Compact form of solution of $\displaystyle\int_0^{\frac{\pi}{2}}\ln\left(1+\alpha^n\sin(x)^{2n}\right)\mathrm{d}x$
I hope it won't be categorized as a trivial question, I solved this integral and arrived at the following form:
$${\int_{0}^{\frac{\pi}{2}}\ln\left(1+\alpha^n\sin(x)^{2n}\right)\mathrm{d}x=\frac{n\pi}{...
