by a simple method calculate S_n = Σ_(k=0) ^n cos(kx), T_n =Σ_(k=0) ^n sin(kx) (cos(x)−1)S_n +sin(x)T_n =Σ_(k=0) ^n cos((k−1)x)=cos(x)−cos(nx) −sin(x)S_n +(cos(x)−1)T_n =Σ_(k=0) ^n sin((k−1)x)=−sin(x)−sin(nx) ∴ { ((2sin^2 ((x/2))S_n −2sin((x/2))cos((x/2))T_n =cos(nx)−cos(x)...(1))),((2sin((x/2))cos((x/2))S_n +2sin^2 ((x/2))T_n =(sin(x)+sin(nx))...(2))) :} (1).sin((x/2))+(2)cos((x/2))⇒S_n =((sin((x/2))cos(nx)−sin((x/2))cos(x)+cos((x/2))sin(x)+cos((x/2))sin(nx))/(2sin((x/2)))) ∴ S_n =((sin((n+(1/2))x)+sin((x/2)))/(2sin((x/2))))=((sin(((n+1)/2)x)cos(((nx)/2)))/(sin((x/2))))
