Limit of an Integral of a $C^\infty$-Smooth Function with Compact Support
Let $\varphi:\R\rightarrow\R$ be a $C^\infty$-smooth function with compact support. Prove that the following limit exists, and compute the limit.
$$\lim_{\varepsilon\rightarrow0+} \int_{-\infty}^{\infty}\frac{\varphi(x)}{x+i\varepsilon} \;\mathrm{d}x , i=\sqrt{-1}$$
$$\lim_{\varepsilon\rightarrow0+} \int_{-\infty}^{\infty}\frac{\varphi(x)}{x+i\varepsilon} \;\mathrm{d}x , i=\sqrt{-1}$$

Hello. Sorry about that. First time using the service, so I didn't know what a good price would be. I also didn't know it would be so difficult to solve - I thought it would mostly use basic definitions since the other questions on this exam use mostly definitions or key but simply-stated theorems like the extreme value theorem. I would be willing to up the price but I don't think there is a way to do it after the fact?
The answer is accepted.
