Abstract

We find an explicit formula for the coefficients of the generalized Maclaurin series for sin p provided p > 2 is an integer. Our method is based on an expression of the n-th derivative of sin p in the form ∑2n-2-1k=0 αk,n sin p-1 p(x) cos2-pp(x), x ∈ (0, πp/2), where cos p stands for the first derivative of sin p. The formula allows us to compute the nonzero coefficients. α n = lim x→0+ sin(np+1)p(x)/(np + 1)!
