$\cos (\frac{π}{7}) - \cos (\frac{2 π}{7}) + \cos (\frac{3 π}{7}) = ?$

	$let φ = \cos (\frac{π}{7}) - \cos (\frac{2 π}{7}) + \cos (\frac{3 π}{7})$ $φ = \cos (\frac{π}{7}) + \cos (\frac{3 π}{7}) + \cos (\frac{5 π}{7})$ $\Rightarrow 2 φ \sin t = 2 \sin t \cos t + 2 \sin t \cos 3 t + 2 \sin tcos 5 t$ $where t = \frac{π}{7}$ $\Rightarrow 2 φ \sin t = \sin 2 t + \sin 4 t - \sin 2 t + \sin 6 t - \sin 4 t$ $\Rightarrow 2 φ \sin t = \sin 6 t$ $\Rightarrow φ = \frac{\sin (\frac{6 π}{7})}{2 \sin (\frac{π}{7})} = \frac{1}{2}$
