2sin(θ)cos(6θ)=sin(θ+6θ)+sin(θ−6θ)=sin(7θ)+sin(−5θ)2sin(θ)cos(4θ)=sin(5θ)+sin(−3θ)2sin(θ)cos(2θ)=sin(3θ)+sin(−θ)2sin(θ)(cos(6θ)+cos(4θ)+cos(2θ))=sin(7θ)−sin(5θ)+sin(5θ)−sin(3θ)+sin(3θ)−sin(θ)=sin(7θ)−sin(θ)θ=2π7⇒2sin(2π7)(cos(4π7)+cos(8π7)+cos(4π7))=sin(2π)−sin(2π7))⇔cos(4π7)+cos(8π7)+cos(4π7)=−12(iii)⇔sin(7θ)−sin(θ)=cos(2θ)+cos(4θ)+vos(2θ)⇔2sin(θ)=1⇒sin(θ)=12⇒2kπ+π6,2kπ+5π6,k∈Z
