(√(bemath −−−−■■)) find the value of Π_(m=1) ^6 tan (((mπ)/7)).

$$\:\:\sqrt{{bemath}\:−−−−\blacksquare\blacksquare} \\ $$$${find}\:{the}\:{value}\:{of}\:\underset{{m}=\mathrm{1}} {\overset{\mathrm{6}} {\prod}}\mathrm{tan}\:\left(\frac{{m}\pi}{\mathrm{7}}\right).\: \\ $$

should be =0

$$\mathrm{should}\:\mathrm{be}\:=\mathrm{0} \\ $$

sorry the sum is 0 but the product is −7 as Sir John Santu has shown

$$\mathrm{sorry}\:\mathrm{the}\:\mathrm{sum}\:\mathrm{is}\:\mathrm{0}\:\mathrm{but}\:\mathrm{the}\:\mathrm{product}\:\mathrm{is}\:−\mathrm{7}\:\mathrm{as} \\ $$$$\mathrm{Sir}\:\mathrm{John}\:\mathrm{Santu}\:\mathrm{has}\:\mathrm{shown} \\ $$

Π_(m=1) ^6 tan (((mπ)/7)) = ? we have sin (nx) = 2^(m−1) Π_(m=0) ^(n−1) sin (x+((mπ)/n)) when x→0 , S_n = Π_(m=1) ^(n−1) sin (((mπ)/n))=(n/2^(n−1) ) where n = 7 , thus S_7 = Π_(m=1) ^(7−1) sin(((mπ)/7))=(7/(64)) but we know relation cos x=sin ((π/2)−x) cos (x+((mπ)/n))=−sin (x−(π/2)+((mπ)/n)) Π_(m=0) ^(n−1) cos (x+((mπ)/n))=(−1)^n Π_(m=0) ^(n−1) sin (x−(π/2)+((mπ)/n)) = (((−1)^n )/2^(n−1) ).sin (nx−((nπ)/2)) = (((−1)^n )/2^(n−1) ). ((sin (nx−((nπ)/2)))/(cos x)) x→0 ; Q_n = Π_(m=1) ^(n−1) cos (((mπ)/n))=(((−1)^(n+1) )/2^(n−1) ).sin (((nπ)/2)) put n= 7 ; Q_7 =Π_(m=1) ^(7−1) cos (((mπ)/7))=(((−1)^8 )/2^6 ).sin (((7π)/2))=−(1/(64)) therefore Π_(m=1) ^6 tan (((mπ)/7)) = ((((7/(64))))/((−(1/(64)))))=−7
