Question

Tính: \(H=cos\dfrac{\pi}{19}+cos\dfrac{3\pi}{19}+...+cos\dfrac{17\pi}{19}\)

Answer 1

\(H.sin\dfrac{\pi}{19}=sin\dfrac{\pi}{19}.cos\dfrac{\pi}{19}+sin\dfrac{\pi}{19}cos\dfrac{3\pi}{19}+...+sin\dfrac{\pi}{19}cos\dfrac{17\pi}{19}\)

\(=\dfrac{1}{2}sin\dfrac{2\pi}{19}+\dfrac{1}{2}sin\dfrac{4\pi}{19}-\dfrac{1}{2}sin\dfrac{2\pi}{19}+...+\dfrac{1}{2}sin\dfrac{18\pi}{19}-\dfrac{1}{2}sin\dfrac{16\pi}{19}\)

\(=\dfrac{1}{2}sin\dfrac{18\pi}{19}=\dfrac{1}{2}sin\left(\pi-\dfrac{\pi}{19}\right)=\dfrac{1}{2}sin\dfrac{\pi}{19}\)

\(\Rightarrow H=\dfrac{1}{2}\)
