If sin 6 x = r = 0 ∑ 6 a r cos r x ,
what is a 0 + a 1 + a 2 + a 3 + a 4 + a 5 + a 6 ?

setting x=0 would mean that that the equation is an identity......wow..great....nice approach..
because cos(r*0) = 1. nice one sir. i just realized it..
To express c o s n x or s i n n x as a series of multiple angles of cos and sin , we use E u l e r s − r e p r e s e n t a t i o n
c o s ( x ) = 2 e i x + e − i x and s i n ( x ) = 2 i e i x − e − i x
And Expand c o s n x =( 2 e i x + e − i x ) n By Binomial theorem etc.as for the above example
s i n 6 x =( 2 i e i x − e − i x ) 6
2 6 . i 6 1 [ 6 C 0 e 6 i x − 6 C 1 e 5 i x e − i x + 6 C 2 e 4 i x e − 2 i x . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . ]
= 6 4 − 1 [ 2 c o s ( 6 x ) − 6 ∗ 2 c o s ( 4 x ) + 1 5 ∗ 2 c o s ( 2 x ) − 2 0 ]
3 2 − 1 + 1 6 3 c o s 4 x - 3 2 1 5 c o s 2 x + 8 5
= ∑ r = 0 6 a r . c o s r x
a 0 =5/8
a 1 =0
a 2 =-15/32
a 3 =0
a 4 =3/16
a 5 =0
a 6 =-1/32
sum of all these =
1 6 5
m + n = 2 1

You made a mistake in simplifying 6 4 2 0 , which should be equivalent to 1 6 5 instead of 8 5 . This explains why your answer is off by 8 5 − 1 6 5 = 1 6 5 .
I agree with all the rest of the steps, other accounting for this error.
Note that substituting in x = 0 will give us 0 = a 0 + a 1 + a 2 + a 3 + a 4 + a 5 + a 6 . In particular, we do not need to find the exact values of a i .
I have updated the answer to "1", given the interpretation of 1 0 . I have modified the question, and the answer is now 0.

I can't understand?? What do you mean to say??

@Parth Lohomi – Check your arithemtic, specifically this line:
There are 2 errors
1) (minor) You missed out the term
cos
6
x
2) (major) You simplified the constant
6
4
2
0
as
8
5
. Instead, it should be
1
6
5
.
Please fix these errors accordingly.

@Parth Lohomi – Once you fix the arithmetic errors, this solution is good.
If I wanted to find the identity, this is the approach that I would take, as it gives the terms almost immediately.
Putting x=0 we get , a1+a2+a3+a4+a5+a6 = 0

Set x=0 . This gives a0+a1+a2+a3+a4+a5+a6 = sin(0)^6=0
