Exercise 3.  Consider the integral  [Graphics:Images/ContourIntegralModHome_gr_126.gif],  where C is the positively oriented upper semicircle of radius 1, centered at 0.  

3 (a).  Give a Riemann sum approximation for the integral by selecting  [Graphics:Images/ContourIntegralModHome_gr_127.gif]  and using the

points  [Graphics:Images/ContourIntegralModHome_gr_128.gif]   and   [Graphics:Images/ContourIntegralModHome_gr_129.gif].  

Solution 3 (a).

See text and/or instructor's solution manual.

Answer.  The approximation simplifies to  [Graphics:../Images/ContourIntegralModHome_gr_130.gif].

Solution.  Use the following:  [Graphics:../Images/ContourIntegralModHome_gr_131.gif],  [Graphics:../Images/ContourIntegralModHome_gr_132.gif],  [Graphics:../Images/ContourIntegralModHome_gr_133.gif],  and

                              [Graphics:../Images/ContourIntegralModHome_gr_134.gif]  

Make the substitutions and get  

                              [Graphics:../Images/ContourIntegralModHome_gr_135.gif]

                              [Graphics:../Images/ContourIntegralModHome_gr_136.gif]
