✔ 最佳答案
求 cosπ/11+cos3π/11+cos5π/11+cos7π/11+cos9π/11

let y=cosπ/11+cos3π/11+cos5π/11+cos9π/11

consider 2ysinπ/11
2ysinπ/11
=sin2π/11+sin4π/11-sin2π/11+sin6π/11-sin4π/11+sin8π/11-sin6π/11sin10π/11-sin8π/11 【sinAcosB=1/2[sin(A+B)+sin(A-B)]】
=sin10π/11

2ysinπ/11=sin10π/11
2ysinπ/11=sin(π-π/11)
2ysinπ/11=sinπ/11
2y=1
y=1/2
thus
cosπ/11+cos3π/11+cos5π/11+cos9π/11=1/2

Apply the trigonometric function formula :sinAcosB=1/2[sin(A+B)+sin(A-B)]and consider
2* sinπ/11*[cosπ/11 + cos3π/11 + cos5π/11 + cos7π/11 + cos9π/11]
= [sin2π/11] + [sin4π/11-sin2π/11] + [sin6π/11-sin4π/11] + [sin8π/11-sin6π/11] + [sin10π/11-sin8π/11]
= sin10π/11
=sin[π-(π/11)]
= sinπ/11

Therefore,
cosπ/11+cos3π/11+cos5π/11+cos9π/11=1/2

更正Therefore,cosπ/11 cos3π/11 cos5π/11 cos7π/11 cos9π/11=1/2

2008-02-20 13:07:49 補充:
To 上面回答者 :myisland8132答案提及 let y=cosπ/11 cos3π/11 cos5π/11 cos9π/11其實應該係 let y=cosπ/11 cos3π/11 cos5π/11 cos7π/11 cos9π/11 先至0岩
