For relations of Legendre’s integrals to theta functions, Jacobian functions,
and Weierstrass functions, see §§20.9(i) , 22.15(ii) ,
and 23.6(iv) , respectively. See also

§19.10(ii) Elementary Functions
If y > 0 is assumed (without loss of generality), then
19.10.1
ln ( x / y )
= ( x − y ) R C ( 1 4 ( x + y ) 2 , x y ) ,
arctan ( x / y )
= x R C ( y 2 , y 2 + x 2 ) ,
arctanh ( x / y )
= x R C ( y 2 , y 2 − x 2 ) ,
arcsin ( x / y )
= x R C ( y 2 − x 2 , y 2 ) ,
arcsinh ( x / y )
= x R C ( y 2 + x 2 , y 2 ) ,
arccos ( x / y )
= ( y 2 − x 2 ) 1 / 2 R C ( x 2 , y 2 ) ,
arccosh ( x / y )
= ( x 2 − y 2 ) 1 / 2 R C ( x 2 , y 2 ) .
In each case when y = 1 , the quantity multiplying R C supplies the
asymptotic behavior of the left-hand side as the left-hand side tends to 0.
For relations to the Gudermannian function gd ( x ) and its
inverse gd − 1 ( x ) (§4.23(viii) ), see (19.6.8 )
and
19.10.2
( sinh ϕ ) R C ( 1 , cosh 2 ϕ ) = gd ( ϕ ) .
