If we define I n = ∫ 0 2 π cos ( n ( x + sin 7 x ) ) d x n ∈ N ∪ { 0 } then I n = R e [ ∫ 0 2 π e i n ( x + sin 7 x ) d x ] = R e [ ∫ ∣ z ∣ = 1 z n e 2 1 n ( z 7 − z − 7 ) i z d z ] = R e [ 2 π R e s z = 0 z n − 1 e 2 1 n ( z 7 − z − 7 ) ] from which it is clear that I n = 0 whenever n is not a multiple of 7 . Of course I 0 = 2 π . Since 5 1 2 sin 1 0 u = − cos 1 0 u + 1 0 cos 8 u − 4 5 cos 6 u + 1 2 0 cos 4 u − 2 1 0 cos 2 u + 1 2 6 we deduce that ∫ 0 π sin 1 0 ( x + sin 7 x ) d x = 2 1 ∫ 0 2 π sin 1 0 ( x + sin 7 x ) d x = 1 0 2 4 1 [ − I 1 0 + 1 0 I 8 − 4 5 I 6 + 1 2 0 I 4 − 2 1 0 I 2 + 1 2 6 I 0 ] = 5 1 2 6 3 I 0 = 2 5 6 6 3 π making the answer 6 3 + 1 + 2 5 6 = 3 2 0 .
