Question Number 34689 by math khazana by abdo last updated on 09/May/18

prove that  Σ_(k=1) ^n  sin((k/n^2 )) =(1/2) +(1/(2n)) +o((1/n))

$${prove}\:{that}\:\:\sum_{{k}=\mathrm{1}} ^{{n}} \:{sin}\left(\frac{{k}}{{n}^{\mathrm{2}} }\right)\:=\frac{\mathrm{1}}{\mathrm{2}}\:+\frac{\mathrm{1}}{\mathrm{2}{n}}\:+{o}\left(\frac{\mathrm{1}}{{n}}\right) \\ $$

we have sinx = x  +o(x^3 )  (x→0)  sin((k/n^2 )) = (k/n^2 )   +o((1/n^6 ))  Σ_(k=1) ^n  sin((k/n^2 )) = (1/n^2 ) Σ_(k=1) ^n  k  +o((1/n))  = (1/n^2 ) ((n(n+1))/2) +o((1/n))  = (1/2) + (1/(2n)) +o((1/n))  so S_n = (1/2) +(1/(2n)) +o((1/n))  Remark    its clear that lim_(n→+∞)  S_n =(1/2)
