Question Number 106944 by Rio Michael last updated on 08/Aug/20
If Σ_(i= 1) ^n  sin (θ_i ) = n then  cos (θ_1 ) + cos (θ_2 ) + cos (θ_3 ) + ... + cos (θ_n ) = ?  i got 0 as answer. please who can correct?

Σ_(i= 1) ^n  sin (θ_i )≤n (= only for sin θ_i =1)  Σ_(i= 1) ^n  sin (θ_i )=n ⇒ sin θ_i =1⇒cos θ_i =0  ⇒Σ_(i=1) ^n cos θ_i =0
$$\underset{{i}=\:\mathrm{1}} {\overset{{n}} {\sum}}\:\mathrm{sin}\:\left(\theta_{{i}} \right)\leqslant{n}\:\left(=\:{only}\:{for}\:\mathrm{sin}\:\theta_{{i}} =\mathrm{1}\right) \\ $$$$\underset{{i}=\:\mathrm{1}} {\overset{{n}} {\sum}}\:\mathrm{sin}\:\left(\theta_{{i}} \right)={n}\:\Rightarrow\:\mathrm{sin}\:\theta_{{i}} =\mathrm{1}\Rightarrow\mathrm{cos}\:\theta_{{i}} =\mathrm{0} \\ $$$$\Rightarrow\underset{{i}=\mathrm{1}} {\overset{{n}} {\sum}}\mathrm{cos}\:\theta_{{i}} =\mathrm{0} \\ $$

Applying the inequality AM−GM  We have    n=Σ_(k=1) ^(n) cosθ_k =Σ_(k=1) ^(n) (√(1−sin^2 θ_k ))  =1.(√(1−sin^2 θ_1 )) +1.(√(1−sin^2 θ_2 )) +...+1.(√(1−sin^2 θ_n  ))  ≤(√((1+1+..+1)(1−sin^2 θ_1 +1−sin^2 θ_2 +...+1−sin^2 θ_n )))  =(√(n(cos^2 θ_1 +cos^2 θ_2 +...+cos^2 θ_n )))  ≤(√(n.n))=n (since cosθ_k ^2  ≤1 ∀k=1...n^(−) )  This shows that the above inequality  must  ocurr  equality sign which is  equivalent to   { (((1/(1−sin^2 θ_1 ))=(1/(1−sin^2 θ_2 ))=...=(1/(1−sin^2 θ_n )))),((sinθ_1 +sinθ_2 +...+sinθ_n =n)) :}  ⇔ { ((sinθ_1 =sinθ_2 =   ...        =sinθ_n )),((sinθ_1 +sinθ_2 +    ...    +sinθ_n =n)) :}  ⇔sinθ_1 =sinθ_2 =    ...     =sinθ_n =1  ⇔cosθ_1 =cosθ_2 =    ...    =cosθ_n =0  ⇒Σ_(k=1) ^(n) cos(θ_k )=0(q.e.d)
