Well I don't think there's anything wrong in this question,
Talking about the solution, we have:
sin20.sin40.sin60.sin80
= 3 . 2 1 . sin 20 .sin 40 .sin 80
= 3 . 2 1 . sin 20 .sin (60-20) .sin (60+20)
= 3 . 2 1 . sin 20 .[ s i n 2 6 0 - s i n 2 2 0 ]
(we know that sin (A-B) .sin (A+B) = s i n 2 A - s i n 2 B )
= 3 . 2 1 . sin 20 . [ \frac{3}{4} - \(sin^{2}20 ]
= 3 . 2 1 . \frac{1}{4} . sin 20 . [ 3- 4\(sin^{2}20 ]
= 3 . 2 1 . \frac{1}{4} . [ 3sin20- 4\(sin^{3}20 ]
= we know that 3sinA - 4 s i n 3 2 0 =sin 3A
= 3 . 2 1 . 4 1 . (sin 3(20))
= 3 . 2 1 . 4 1 . sin 60
= 3 . 8 1 . 3 . 2 1
= 1 6 3
Thus the question as well as the answer is totally correct!!
