Gauss' mean value theorem (Theorem)

Let $ \Omega$ be a domain in $ \mathbb{C}$ and suppose $ f$ is an analytic function on $ \Omega$. Furthermore, let $ C$ be a circle inside $ \Omega$ with center $ z_0$ and radius $ r$. Then $ f(z_0)$ is the mean value of $ f$ along $ C$, that is,

$\displaystyle f(z_0)=\frac{1}{2\pi}\int_0^{2\pi}f(z_0+re^{i\theta})d\theta. $
