((4sin((2π)/7)cos(π/(14))sin(π/7)+sin(π/7))/(cos(π/(14))cos(π/7)))=((2(cos(π/7)−cos((3π)/7))cos(π/(14))+sin(π/7))/(cos(π/(14))cos(π/7)))  =((cos(π/(14))−cos((3π)/(14))−cos((5π)/(14))+cos(π/2)+cos((5π)/(14)))/(cos(π/(14))cos(π/7)))      sin(π/7)=cos((5π)/(14))  =((cos(π/(14))−cos((3π)/7))/(cos(π/(14))cos(π/7)))=2(((cos(π/(14))cos(π/7))/(cos(π/(14))cos(π/7))))=2

let (π/(14))=x then ((4sin 4x+sec x)/(cot 2x))=  ((4sin 4xcos x+1)/(cos x(((cos 2x)/(sin 2x)))))= ((4sin 4xcos xsin 2x+sin 2x)/(cos x cos 2x))   = ((−2(cos 6x−cos 2x)cos  x+sin 2x)/(cos xcos 2x))   = ((2cos 2x cos x−2cos 6xcos x+sin 2x)/(cos xcos 2x))   = ((2cos 2xcos x−cos 7x−cos 5x+sin 2x)/(cos x cos 2x))   [ we know that cos 7x=cos (π/2)=0 ∧cos 5x=cos ((5π)/(14))=sin ((2π)/(14)) ]  thus we get cos 7x−cos 5x+sin 2x = 0  so ((2cos 2x cos x+0)/(cos x cos 2x)) = 2.
