Let $$n$$ be an odd integer. If $$\sin n\theta = \sum\limits_{r = 0}^n {{b_r}{{\sin }^r}\theta } $$ for all real $$\theta $$ then
A.
$${b_0} = 1,{b_1} = 3$$
B.
$${b_0} = 0,{b_1} = n$$
C.
$${b_0} = - 1,{b_1} = n$$
D.
$${b_0} = 0,{b_1} = {n^2} - 3n - 3$$

$$\sin n\theta = {b_0} + {b_1}\sin \theta + {b_2}{\sin ^2}\theta + .....\,\,\,.$$
This is possible when $$n$$ is an odd integer.
Put $$\theta = 0$$ to get $${b_0}.$$ After differentiating w.r.t. $$\theta ,$$ put $$\theta = 0$$ to get $${b_1}.$$

$$\eqalign{
& \sin \frac{\pi }{{2n}} + \cos \frac{\pi }{{2n}} = \frac{{\sqrt n }}{2} \cr
& \Rightarrow \,\,{\sin ^2}\frac{\pi }{{2n}} + {\cos ^2}\frac{\pi }{{2n}} + 2\sin \frac{\pi }{{2n}}\cos \frac{\pi }{{2n}} = \frac{n}{4} \cr
& \Rightarrow \,\,1 + \sin \frac{\pi }{4} = \frac{n}{4} \cr
& \Rightarrow \,\,\sin \frac{\pi }{4} = \frac{{n - 4}}{4} \cr} $$
For $$n = 2$$ the given equation is not satisfied.
Considering $$n > 1$$ and $$n \ne 2$$
$$\eqalign{
& 0 < \sin \frac{\pi }{4} < 1 \cr
