The capacitance of a capacitor with not parallel plane plates

We analyze in this article three different methods to obtain the capacitance of a capacitor with not parallel plane plates: a solution by integration, a solution by limits and a proposed solution. In spite of the fact that each of the solutions involves different approximations, the three capacitances obtained are coherent.
