1. Rewrite the given equation using trigonometric identities:
The given equation is:
(43−sin2(α))(43−sin2(3α))(43−sin2(32α))(43−sin2(33α))=2561
2. **Use the identity for sin2(x):**
Recall that sin2(x)=21−cos(2x). Therefore:
43−sin2(x)=43−21−cos(2x)=43−21+2cos(2x)=41+2cos(2x)
3. Simplify each term:
Applying the above identity to each term:
43−sin2(α)=41+2cos(2α)
43−sin2(3α)=41+2cos(6α)
43−sin2(9α)=41+2cos(18α)
43−sin2(27α)=41+2cos(54α)
4. Combine the terms:
The product of these terms is:
(41+2cos(2α))(41+2cos(6α))(41+2cos(18α))(41+2cos(54α))=2561
5. Simplify the equation:
Notice that 2561=(41)4. Therefore, each term must be equal to 41:
41+2cos(2α)=41
41+2cos(6α)=41
41+2cos(18α)=41
41+2cos(54α)=41
6. **Solve for α:**
Each equation simplifies to:
2cos(2α)=0⟹cos(2α)=0⟹2α=90∘⟹α=45∘
However, we need to find the least positive angle α such that:
sin(81α)=sin(α)
This implies:
81α=180∘k+αor81α=180∘k−α
For the smallest positive α:
81α=180∘+α⟹80α=180∘⟹α=80180∘=49∘
7. **Express α in simplest form:**
α=49∘. In degrees, this is 49.
8. **Find m+n:**
Here, m=9 and n=4. Therefore, m+n=9+4=13.
The final answer is 13.
