The correct Answer is:
To find the value of \( \sin\left(\frac{\pi}{7}\right) \sin\left(\frac{2\pi}{7}\right) \sin\left(\frac{3\pi}{7}\right) \), we can use a known identity involving the product of sine functions. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Use the Known Identity**: We know that: \[ \sin\left(\frac{\pi}{7}\right) \sin\left(\frac{2\pi}{7}\right) \sin\left(\frac{3\pi}{7}\right) = \frac{1}{2^3} = \frac{1}{8} \] 2. **Verification**: To verify, we can use the fact that: \[ \sin(7\theta) = 0 \text{ for } \theta = \frac{k\pi}{7} \text{ where } k = 0, 1, 2, \ldots, 7 \] The roots of this equation are: \[ \theta = 0, \frac{\pi}{7}, \frac{2\pi}{7}, \frac{3\pi}{7}, \frac{4\pi}{7}, \frac{5\pi}{7}, \frac{6\pi}{7} \] Therefore, we can express \( \sin(7\theta) \) as: \[ \sin(7\theta) = 7\sin(\theta) - 56\sin^3(\theta) + 112\sin^5(\theta) - 64\sin^7(\theta) \] Setting \( \theta = \frac{\pi}{7} \), we find: \[ 0 = 7\sin\left(\frac{\pi}{7}\right) - 56\sin^3\left(\frac{\pi}{7}\right) + 112\sin^5\left(\frac{\pi}{7}\right) - 64\sin^7\left(\frac{\pi}{7}\right) \] This polynomial can be factored to find the product of the sine terms. 3. **Conclusion**: Thus, we conclude that: \[ \sin\left(\frac{\pi}{7}\right) \sin\left(\frac{2\pi}{7}\right) \sin\left(\frac{3\pi}{7}\right) = \frac{1}{8} \] ### Final Answer: \[ \sin\left(\frac{\pi}{7}\right) \sin\left(\frac{2\pi}{7}\right) \sin\left(\frac{3\pi}{7}\right) = \frac{1}{8} \]
