Abstract : We aim at deriving Gauss's second summation theorem for the series $_2 F_1 (1/2)$ by using Euler's integral representation for $_2F_1$. It seems that this method of proof has not been tried.
Keywords : generalized hypergeometric series $_p F_q$, Gauss's second summation theorem for $_2 F_1 (1/2)$, Beta function
