Solution

The correct option is A 4
Let, αk=coskπ7+ isinkπ7.

Now, |αk+1αk|= |{cos(k+1)π7 coskπ7} +i{sin(k+1)π7sinkπ7}|

=[{cos(k+1)π7 coskπ7}2 +{sin(k+1)π7sinkπ7}2]12

=22(cos(k+1)π7coskπ7+sin(k+1)π7sinkπ7)

=22(cosπ7) [Since cos(AB)=cosAcosBsinAsinB]
12k=1|αk+1αk| =12 22(cosπ7)......(1).
And
Now, |α4k+1α4k2|= |{cos(4k+1)π7 cos(4k2)π7} +i{sin(4k+1)π7sin(4k2)π7}|
=[{cos(4k+1)π7 cos(4k2)π7}2 +{sin(4k+1)π7sin(4k2)π7}2]12

=22(cos(4k+1)π7cos(4k2)π7+sin(4k+1)π7sin(4k2)π7)

=22(cosπ7) [Since cos(AB)=cosAcosBsinAsinB]

3k=1|α4k+1α4k2| =3 22(cosπ7)........(2).

12k=1|αk+1αk|3k=1|α4k+1α4k2| =4 [Using (1) and (2)].
