\nThe given function has a simple pole at $z=\\var{c1}$.

b)
\nFor a simple pole $z=z_0$, the residue can be calculated using the formula
\n\\[\\underset{z=z_0}{\\operatorname{Res}}=\\lim_{z\\rightarrow z_0}(z-z_0)f(z).\\]
\nIn this case, the corresponding residue for $z=\\var{c1}$ is
\n\\[\\underset{z=\\var{c1}}{\\operatorname{Res}}=\\lim_{z\\rightarrow\\var{c1}}(z-\\var{c1})f(z)=\\lim_{z\\rightarrow\\var{c1}}\\left(\\simplify{{a1}+{b1}*z^{n1}}\\right)=\\var{res}.\\]
\n\n
c)
\nNow use the Residue Theorem to calculate the integral $I$.
\nLet $f(z)$ be analytic inside a closed path $C$, and on $C$, except at finitely many singular points $z_n=z_1,z_2,\\ldots,z_k$ inside $C$. Then the integral of $f(z)$ taken counter-clockwise around $C$ equals $2\\pi i$ times the sum of the residues of $f(z)$ at $z_n=z_1,z_2,\\ldots,z_k$, i.e. \\[\\oint_C{\\!f(z)\\,\\mathrm{d}z}=2\\pi i\\sum_{n=1}^k{\\underset{z=z_n}{\\operatorname{Res}}f(z)}.\\]\n
Therefore
\n\\[I=2\\pi i\\times\\simplify{{a1}+{b1}*{c1}^{n1}}=\\simplify{2*pi*i*({a1}+{b1}*{c1}^{n1})}.\\]
