find the Maclaurin series for ln 1 + x 1 x . I found it is x 2 n + 1 2 n + 1 ,is it correct? I got the 1 / 2 outside and solved the maclaurin for the normal log. If it is okay how can I find a relationship between this and the maclaurin series artg.I know it is ( 1 ) n n of my series but how can I write it?

The Taylor series for log 1 + x 1 x at 0 is n = 0 x 2 n + 1 2 n + 1 , because
log 1 + x 1 x = 1 2 log ( 1 + x 1 x ) = 1 2 ( log ( 1 + x ) log ( 1 x ) ) = 1 2 ( x x 2 2 + x 3 3 x 4 4 + ( x x 2 2 x 3 3 x 4 4 ) ) = x + x 3 3 + x 5 5 +
And the Taylor series for arctan arctan ( x ) at 0 is quite similar: n = 0 ( 1 ) n x 2 n + 1 2 n + 1 . That's because
arctan ( x ) = 1 1 + x 2 = 1 x 2 + x 4 x 6 +

log ( 1 + x 1 x ) = 1 2 log ( 1 + x 1 x ) = 1 2 ( log ( 1 + x ) log ( 1 x ) ) = 1 2 ( n 1 ( 1 ) n + 1 x n n n 1 ( 1 ) x n n ) = 1 2 ( n 1 ( 1 ) n + 1 x n n + n 1 x n n ) = 1 2 ( n 1 ( ( 1 ) n + 1 + 1 ) x n n ) = 1 2 ( n 1 2 x 2 n 1 2 n 1 ) = n 1 x 2 n 1 2 n 1 =: f ( x )
And the arctan is:
tan 1 ( x ) = n 1 ( 1 ) n + 1 x 2 n 1 2 n 1 =: g ( x )
One relation can be:
tan 1 ( x ) = log ( 1 + i x 1 i x )
Or alternatively:
g ( x ) = f ( i x )
