 cos ((π/(18))).cos (((3π)/(18))).cos (((5π)/(18))).cos (((7π)/(18)))=?
$$\:\mathrm{cos}\:\left(\frac{\pi}{\mathrm{18}}\right).\mathrm{cos}\:\left(\frac{\mathrm{3}\pi}{\mathrm{18}}\right).\mathrm{cos}\:\left(\frac{\mathrm{5}\pi}{\mathrm{18}}\right).\mathrm{cos}\:\left(\frac{\mathrm{7}\pi}{\mathrm{18}}\right)=? \\ $$

(1/2)[cos ((8π)/(18))+cos ((6π)/(18))]∙(1/2)[cos ((8π)/(18))+cos ((2π)/(18))]  =(1/4)(cos^2  ((4π)/9)+cos ((4π)/9)cos (π/9)+cos ((3π)/9)cos ((4π)/9)+cos ((3π)/9)cos (π/9))  =(1/8)(1+cos ((8π)/9)+cos ((5π)/9)+cos ((3π)/9)+cos ((7π)/9)+cos (π/9)+cos ((4π)/9)+cos ((2π)/9))  =(1/8)(1−cos (π/9)−cos ((4π)/9)+cos ((3π)/9)−cos ((2π)/9)+cos (π/9)+cos ((4π)/9)+cos ((2π)/9))  =(1/8)(1+cos ((3π)/9))  =(1/8)(1+cos (π/3))  =(1/8)(1+(1/2))=(1/8)((3/2))  =(3/(16))
