How to get $A$ and $B$ from $A\csc 10^\circ+B=$ $\sin 10^\circ+\cos 60^\circ+\cos 40^\circ+\sin 70^\circ+\sin 90^\circ$?

The problem is as follows: Find $A+B$ from: $A\csc 10^\circ+B=\sin 10^\circ+\cos 60^\circ+\cos 40^\circ+\sin 70^\circ+\sin 90^\circ$ The alternatives given in my book are as follows: $\begin{array}{ll}...

How can we sum up $\sin^m$ and $\cos^m$ series when the angles are in arithmetic progression?

How can we sum up $\sin^m$ and $\cos^m$ series when the angles are in arithmetic progression? Does an identity exist similar to 1.1 and 1.2 for $m>1$?, and Does an approximate or estimate exist? ...

How can we sum up $\sin$ and $\cos$ series when the angles are in arithmetic progression?

How can we sum up $\sin$ and $\cos$ series when the angles are in arithmetic progression? For example here is the sum of $\cos$ series: $$\sum_{k=0}^{n-1}\cos (a+k \cdot d) =\frac{\sin(n \times \frac{...
