Faculty of Khan | Computing Definite Integrals using the Residue Theorem @FacultyofKhan | Uploaded 7 years ago | Updated 4 minutes ago
In this video, I show how to evaluate definite integrals involving sines and cosines by taking advantage of the polar representation of complex numbers and then applying the Residue Theorem. I look at one simple example and one complicated example of an integration which takes advantage of the Residue Theorem.

In many ways, the Residue Theorem makes life a lot more simple by allowing the evaluation of integrals that would otherwise be difficult to compute using the techniques you learned from Calculus 2. I also hope that this video satisfies some of the requests I've been getting on this topic.
