Sir can I demand a solution not involving complex numbers

A solution without using complex numbers. First, I will prove the following two lemmas.
Lemma 1: If sin x is a number distinct from 0 then ∑ k = 1 n cos ( k x ) = 2 sin x sin ( n + 1 ) x + sin n x − s i n x
Proof: ∑ k = 1 n cos ( k x ) = 2 sin x 1 ∑ k = 1 n 2 sin x cos ( k x ) = 2 sin x 1 ∑ k = 1 n ( sin ( k + 1 ) x − sin ( k − 1 ) x ) = 2 sin x 1 [ ( sin ( n + 1 ) x + sin n x ) − ( sin x + sin 0 ) ] = 2 sin x . sin ( n + 1 ) x + sin n x − s i n x Q. E.D.
Lemma 2 : If x = 2 n + 1 2 π j where j is any integer, n is a natural number and sin x is different from 0 , then ∑ k = 1 n cos ( k x ) = − 2 1
Proof: For such a value of x it is always true that sin ( n + 1 ) x + sin n x = 0 . Indeed, sin ( n + 1 ) x + sin n x = 2 sin ( 2 ( n + 1 ) x + n x ) cos ( 2 ( n + 1 ) x − n x ) = = 2 sin π j cos ( 2 ( n + 1 ) x − n x ) = 0 .
So we can complete the proof of Lemma 2 using the Lemma 1.
Q. E. D
Now using Lemma 2 twice we have that
∑ 1 ≤ k < s ≤ n cos 2 n + 1 2 π k cos 2 n + 1 2 π s = 2 1 ( ( ∑ k = 1 n cos 2 n + 1 2 π k ) 2 − ∑ k = 1 n cos 2 2 n + 1 2 π k ) = 2 1 ( 4 1 − ∑ k = 1 n 2 1 + cos 2 n + 1 4 π k ) = 2 1 ( 4 1 − 2 n − 2 1 ∑ k = 1 n cos 2 n + 1 4 π k ) = 2 1 ( 4 1 − 2 n − 2 1 ( − 2 1 ) ) = 4 1 − n .
Therefore the answer of our question can be found by making n = 1 0 0 7 in the latter expression and multiplying the result by ten. So we get 1 0 ( 4 1 − 1 0 0 7 ) = − 2 5 1 5 .
Hello Sir. Can I ask how did you infer that the coefficient of x 2 on L.H.S. is 1 ≤ k < s ≤ 1 0 0 7 ∑ cos ( 2 0 1 5 2 π k ) cos ( 2 0 1 5 2 π s )

Actually, it is 4 ∗ ∑ 1 ≤ k < s ≤ n cos ( 2 n + 1 2 π k ) cos ( 2 n + 1 2 π s ) + n . You can understand it by finding the coefficient of x 2 of a polynomial of the same type with less number of factors. For example, what is the coefficient of x 2 for the polynomial ( x 2 − 2 p 1 x + 1 ) ( x 2 − 2 p 2 x + 1 ) ( x 2 − 2 p 3 x + 1 ) ? The term containing x 2 is obtained when you do the following:
( x 2 from the first factor)X ( 1 in the second) X( 1 in the third) + (1 from the first )x( x 2 from the second)x(1 from the third)+(1 from the first )x(1 from the second)x( x 2 from the third) +( − 2 p 1 x from the first) x( − 2 p 2 x from the second)x(1 from the third)+( − 2 p 1 x from the first) x(1 from the second)x( − 2 p 3 x from the third)+(1 from the first) x( − 2 p 2 x from the second)x( − 2 p 3 x from the third) .
In this case you would obtain: ( 1 + 1 + 1 + 4 p 1 p 2 + 4 p 1 p 3 + 4 p 2 p 3 ) x 2 = ( 3 + 4 p 1 p 2 + 4 p 1 p 3 + 4 p 2 p 3 ) x 2 . Then the coefficient of x 2 would be 3 + 4 p 1 p 2 + 4 p 1 p 3 + 4 p 2 p 3 .

Let's consider w k = cos ( 2 n + 1 2 π k ) + i sin ( 2 n + 1 2 π k ) where k is any natural number such that 1 ≤ k ≤ n . Then all the numbers w k and w k form all 2 n + 1 -th roots of 1 that are different from 1. Then ( x − w 1 ) ( x − w 1 ) ( x − w 2 ) ( x − w 2 ) . . . ( x − w n ) ( x − w n ) = = x − 1 x 2 n + 1 − 1 = x 2 n + x 2 n − 1 + . . . + x 2 + x + 1 ( ∗ ) Now, using that ( x − w k ) ( x − w k ) = x 2 − 2 cos ( 2 n + 1 2 π k ) x + 1 and the previous equality (*) we obtain k = 1 ∏ n ( x 2 − 2 cos ( 2 n + 1 2 π k ) x + 1 ) ) = x 2 n + x 2 n − 1 + . . . + x 2 + x + 1 . Making the coefficients of x 2 in both sides of the equation equal, we get that 4 ∗ ∑ 1 ≤ k < s ≤ n cos ( 2 n + 1 2 π k ) cos ( 2 n + 1 2 π s ) + n = 1 . Therefore ∑ 1 ≤ k < s ≤ n cos ( 2 n + 1 2 π k ) cos ( 2 n + 1 2 π s ) = 4 1 − n . Replacing n by 1007 and denoting the resulting sum by a , we obtain that a = 4 1 − 1 0 0 7 = − 2 5 1 . 5 and therefore 1 0 a = − 2 5 1 5 .
