Re: Trigonometry

Hi 123ronnie321;

This is provided that n = 0,1,2,3,4,...

There is a formula for that particular sum. I used a computer instead.


In mathematics, you don't understand things. You just get used to them.
If it ain't broke, fix it until it is.
Always satisfy the Prime Directive of getting the right answer above all else.
