Neuer Beweis der von Euler (Nov. Comm. Petrop. VIII. 157) gegebenen Formel: \[ \underset n=\infty {\text{Lim}} \cos \frac x2\cdot \cos\frac{x}{2^2} \cdot\cos \frac{x}{2^3}\cdots\cos \frac{x}{2^n}= \frac{\sin x}{x}, \] mit Hülfe der Relation: \[ \cos \frac{x}{2}\cdot \cos\frac{x}{2^2} \cdot\cos \frac{x}{2^3}\cdots \cos\frac{x}{2^n}= \frac{1}{2^{n-1}} \biggl[ \cos\frac{x}{2^n}+ \cos\frac{3x}{2^n} +\cdots+ \cos\frac{(2^n-1)x}{2^n}\biggr]; \] und Folgerungen.
