Question 7 - A-Level Maths

Use de Moivre's theorem to show that $$\operatorname { cosec } 7 \theta = \frac { \operatorname { cosec } ^ { 7 } \theta } { 7 \operatorname { cosec } ^ { 6 } \theta - 56 \operatorname { cosec } ^ { 4 } \theta + 112 \operatorname { cosec } ^ { 2 } \theta - 64 }$$
Hence obtain the roots of the equation $$x ^ { 7 } - 14 x ^ { 6 } + 112 x ^ { 4 } - 224 x ^ { 2 } + 128 = 0$$ in the form $\operatorname { cosec } q \pi$, where $q$ is rational.
