let P(n) be the proposition that ∑r=1ncos(2r−1)α=2sinαsin2nα for n∈Z+
considering P(1) :
LHS =cos(1)α=cosα and RHS =2sinαsin2α=2sinα2sinαcosα=cosα= LHS
A1
M1
so P(1) is true
assume P(k) is true, i.e. ∑r=1kcos(2r−1)α=2sinαsin2kα(k∈Z+)
M1
Note: Award M0 for statements such as "let n=k ".
Note: Subsequent marks after this M1 are independent of this mark and can be awarded.
considering P(k+1)
r=1∑k+1cos(2r−1)α=r=1∑kcos(2r−1)α+cos((2(k+1)−1)α)
M1
=2sinαsin2kα+cos((2(k+1)−1)α)=2sinαsin2kα+2cos((2k+1)α)sinα=2sinαsin2kα+sin((2k+1)α)+α)−sin((2k+1)α−α)=2sinαsin2kα+sin(2kα+2α)−sin2kα=2sinαsin(2(k+1)α)
A1
A1
A1
P(k+1) is true whenever P(k) is true, P(1) is true, so P(n) is true for n∈Z+
R1
Note: Award the final R1 mark provided at least five of the previous marks have been awarded.
