\[\tan^{-1} \left(\frac{1}{1 + N \cdot \left(N + 1\right)}\right)\]

Derivation

  1. Initial program 15.2

    \[\tan^{-1} \left(N + 1\right) - \tan^{-1} N\]
  2. Using strategy rm

  3. Applied diff-atan13.9

    \[\leadsto \color{blue}{\tan^{-1}_* \frac{\left(N + 1\right) - N}{1 + \left(N + 1\right) \cdot N}}\]

  4. Applied simplify0.4

    \[\leadsto \tan^{-1}_* \frac{\color{blue}{1 - 0}}{1 + \left(N + 1\right) \cdot N}\]
  5. Removed slow pow expressions.
