Example 37.  The conformal mapping  [Graphics:Images/ConformalMapDictionary.3.2_gr_103.gif].  
It can be constructed via the Schwarz-Christoffel integral  [Graphics:Images/ConformalMapDictionary.3.2_gr_104.gif],  
also,  w = [Graphics:Images/ConformalMapDictionary.3.2_gr_105.gif].
The image of the upper half-plane  [Graphics:Images/ConformalMapDictionary.3.2_gr_106.gif]  is the portion of the upper half plane  [Graphics:Images/ConformalMapDictionary.3.2_gr_107.gif]   that lies above the segment  [Graphics:Images/ConformalMapDictionary.3.2_gr_108.gif]  and the ray  [Graphics:Images/ConformalMapDictionary.3.2_gr_109.gif].  
Remark. This is Exercise 5 (Extra Example 5) in  Section 11.10, and is illustrated in Figure 11.92.
Hint:  Set  [Graphics:Images/ConformalMapDictionary.3.2_gr_110.gif].  In the w-plane [Graphics:Images/ConformalMapDictionary.3.2_gr_111.gif], and the exterior angles are  [Graphics:Images/ConformalMapDictionary.3.2_gr_112.gif].
