Find the sum of the values of x such that
where x is measured in degrees and 0< x< 360.
Use the product to sum formula on the RHS,
Factor the LHS,
So LHS=RHS ifwhich happens iff
where
.
Now assume. Then we can divide it from both sides, and expand the RHS to get
Similarly, this has solutionswhere
and
.
Summing up all the solutions, we have
