Solution
Multiply both sides with
s
i
n
(
π
7
)
hence we have that
s
i
n
(
π
7
)
c
o
s
(
2
π
7
)
+
s
i
n
(

)
c

(

)
+
s

(
π

)
⋅
c
o
s
(
6
π
7
)
=
−
1

∗
s
i
n
(
π

)
Then because
s
i
n
A
⋅
c

s
B
=
1
2
[
s
i
n
(
A
−
B
)
+
s
i
n
(
A
+
B
)
]
were write this as
1
2
[
s
i
n
(
π
7
−
2
π
7
)
+
s
i
n
(
π

+
2
π

)
]
+

[
s
i

(
π

−

π

)
+
s

(
π

)
]
+

[
s

(
π

−
6
π

)
+
s
i
n
(
π

+
6
π
7
)
]
=
−
s
i
n
π
7

We'l ldivide by
1
2
both sides:
−
s
i
n
(
π
7
)
+
s
i
n
(
3
π
7
)
−
s
i
n
(
3
π
7
)
+
s
i
n
(
5
π
7
)
−
s
i
n
(
5
π
7
)
+
s
i
n
(
7
π
7
)
=
−
s
i
n
(
π
7
)
Cancelling the same terms yields to
−
s
i
n
(
π
7
)
+
s
i
n
(
π
)
=
−
s
i
n
(
π
7
)
But
s
i
n
(
π
)
=
0
hence
−
s
i
n
(
π
7
)
=
−
s
i
n
(
π
7
)
Since we have the same results in both sides,the given identity is true.
