Thread: Help finding a power series

Using the power series of ln(1+x), find the power series of ln(x^2+1)

I found the power series of ln(1+x) which is,
x-(x^2/2)+(x^3/3)-(x^4/4)+...+[(-1)^(n+1)(x^n)]/n + ...

I don't know how to find the series for ln(x^2+1); the other problems involved using the anti-derivative or derivative of the original function but that doesn't seem to work here.

so ... what is ?

Ah thanks, that makes it easy. I just wasn't thinking from that perspective.
