Problems Plus 8: Trigonometric Formula and Sum of Series Involving Inverse Cotangent

In this video I derive a similar formula as in Problem 7 but this time use arccot or inverse cotangent. I then use that formula, as well as the useful method of the Telescoping Sum, to determine the sum of a series involving arccot and show that it equals to π/2.

The timestamps of key parts of the video are listed below:

• Problem 8: 0:00
• Solution to Part (a): 0:30
• Solution to Part (b): 18:11
