but you want to reduced sin(x)^5, not sin 5xOriginally posted by Selenite`:Let z = cos x + isinx = c + is
z^5 = (c + is)^5
= .... using binomial expansion
= c^5 + i(5c^4s) - (10c^3s^2) - i(10c^2c^3) + 5cs^4 + is^5
Using de movire's theorem, z^5 = cos 5x + isin5x
So comparing imaginary parts, sin 5x = s^5 - 10c^2s^3 + 5c^4s
= 16s^5 - 20s^3 + 5s

Use the results z^n - 1/z^n = 2isin nx, where z = cos x + isinx
So, let (2isinx)^5 = (z - 1/z)^5
= expand using binomial
= z^5 - 5z^3 + 10z - 10/z + 5/z^3 - 1/z^5
= (z^5 - 1/z^5) - 5(z^3 - 1/z^3) + 10(z - 1/z)
= 2i sin5x - 5(2i sin3x) + 10(2isinx)
=> 32i(sinx)^5 = 2i sin5x - 5(2i sin3x) + 10(2isinx)
(sinx)^5 = 1/16 [ sin 5x - 5sin 3x + 10sin x ]
