Using multiple triangles to find the values of some arctan angles in a trigonometry question so that I could use an exact expression I wondered how could I prove that the following relation applies to all possible rational numbers without using geometry to prove individual case by case:
$\frac{\pi}{4}-\arctan \frac{m}{n}=\arctan \frac{1}{m+n}$
Where the original geometrical thought was
$\frac{\pi}{4}-\arctan \frac{1}{2}=\arctan \frac{1}{3}$
$\frac{\pi}{4}-\arctan \frac{2}{3}=\arctan \frac{1}{5}$
And lastly, could I use this more widely with complex numbers and if so with what limitations?
