l e t t a k e z = a + i b w i t h a \neq 0

w e c a n p r o v e t h a t a r z \equiv a r c t a n (\frac{b}{a}) [2 π]

l e t n a m e d A = 4 a r c t a n (\frac{1}{5}) - a r c t a n (\frac{1}{239})

A \equiv 4 a r g (5 + i) - a r g (239 + i) [2 π]

A \equiv a r g [{(5 + i)}^{4}] - a r g [(239 + i)] [2 π]

A \equiv a r g [((476 + 480 i)] - a r g (239 + i) [2 π]

A \equiv a r g [\frac{(476 + 480 i) (239 - i)}{239^{2} - 1}] [2 π]

A \equiv a r g [\frac{476 \times 239 + 480 + i (480 \times 239 - 476)}{238 \times 240}] [2 π]

A \equiv a r g [\frac{114244 + 114244 i}{57120}] [2 π]

A \equiv a r g [\frac{114244}{57120} (1 + i)] [2 π]

A \equiv 0 + a r g (1 + i) [2 π]

A \equiv \frac{π}{4} [2 π]
