From sin 2 x = 2 sin x cos x , sin 4 π = 4 sin 1 6 π cos 1 6 π cos 8 π = 8 sin 3 2 π cos 3 2 π cos 1 6 π cos 8 π = 1 6 sin 6 4 π cos 6 4 π cos 3 2 π cos 1 6 π cos 8 π . Continually expanding the sine term results in the infinite product of cosines. Isolating the product, n → ∞ lim 2 n sin 4 ⋅ 2 n π sin 4 π = n = 1 ∏ ∞ cos 4 ⋅ 2 n π . Applying L'Hopital's rule to the left side gives the desired solution.
