Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

//multiply and divide by 2sin(π/5)

=> 2sin(π/5)cos(π/5) cos(2π/5) cos(4π/5) cos(8π/5) / 2sin(π/5)

//remember 2SinACosA = Sin2A.

=> sin (2π/5)cos(2π/5) cos(4π/5) cos(8π/5) / 2sin(π/5)

//now multiply and divide by 2

=> 2sin (2π/5)cos(2π/5) cos(4π/5) cos(8π/5)/4sin(π/5)

//remember 2SinACosA = Sin2A

=> sin(4π/5)cos(4π/5) cos(8π/5)/4sin(π/5)

//now multiply and divide by 2

=> 2sin(4π/5)cos(4π/5) cos(8π/5)/8sin(π/5)

//remember 2SinACosA = Sin2A

=> sin(8π/5)cos(8π/5)/8sin(π/5)

//now multiply and divide by 2

=> 2sin(8π/5)cos(8π/5)/16sin(π/5)

//remember 2SinACosA = Sin2A

=> sin(16π/5)/16sin(π/5)

=> sin (3π + π/5) / 16sin(π/5)

=> sin(π/5)/16sin(π/5)

=> 1/16
