calculus - trigonometric identity related to suminftyn=1fracsin(n)sin(n2)sqrtn


As homework I was given the following series to check for convergence:




n=1sin(n)sin(n2)n



and the tip was "use the appropriate identity".


I'm trying to use Dirichlet's test and show that it's the product of a null monotonic sequence and a bounded series, but I can't figure out which trig. identity is needed.


Can anyone point me towards the right direction?


Many thanks.


Answer



Hint: You can show that Nn=1sin(n)sin(n2)=12(1cos(N2+N)) To do this use identity sin(α)sin(β)=12(cos(αβ)cos(α+β))
