6. Proof:
1+sinθ−icosθ1+sinθ+icosθ=(1+sinθ)2+cos2θ(1+sinθ+icosθ)2=1+2sinθ+sin2θ+cos2θ(1+sinθ)2−cos2θ+2i(1+sinθ)cosθ=2(1+sinθ)1+2sinθ+sin2θ−(1−sin2θ)+2i(1+sinθ)cosθ=2(1+sinθ)2sinθ(1+sinθ)+i2(1+sinθ)cosθ=sinθ+icosθ
Taking θ=5π in the above equation, we get
1+sin5π−icos5π1+sin5π+icos5π=sin5π+icos5π
Taking the fifth power on both sides and using Example 8 of this chapter, we get
(1+sin5π−icos5π)5(1+sin5π+icos5π)5=(sin5π+icos5π)5=ei5(2π−5π)=ei23π=cos23π+isin23π=−i
Therefore,
(1+sin5π+icos5π)5+i(1+sin5π−icos5π)5=0
