A $17$-year old high school graduate who’s looking forward to joining a college. I’m fascinated by math, especially integral calculus. Hence, my username is an ‘integration’ of integral and geek(and not something related to Ελληνικά).

Some of my favourite answers(in no particular order):

Some of my answers which I believe didn't get much attention because they were late to the party:

My most favourite identities:

$$\sinh^{-1}x=-i\sin^{-1}ix$$ $$\cosh^{-1}x=i\operatorname{sgn}(1-x^2)\cos^{-1}x~\forall~x\in\Bbb R$$ $$\tanh^{-1}x=-i\tan^{-1}ix$$

A few numerical identities that strike me as beautiful(the last identity forms the basis for one of my questions):

$$e^{\pi i}=-1$$ $$\ln\left(\cot\frac{\pi}8\right)=\sinh^{-1}1$$ $$\ln\left(\cot\frac{\pi}{12}\right)=\cosh^{-1}2$$ $$\ln\phi=\operatorname{csch}^{-1}2$$ $$1-\frac13+\frac15-\frac17\cdots=\frac23\cdot\frac43\cdot\frac45\cdot\frac65\cdot\frac67\cdots$$ $$1+\frac{1^2}{3(3!)}+\frac{1^23^2}{5(5!)}+\frac{1^23^25^2}{7(7!)}\cdots=\frac\pi2\ln2$$
