The equation in the title is of course equivalent to \(3(\pi^2/12)=4(\pi/4)^2\), but the object here is to exhibit the relation between the two series, the actual sums turning up only at the end. The method is to consider the function \[ g_n(x):=\left(\sum^n_{k=1} k^{-1}\sin 2kx\right)^2\sum^n_{k=1} k^{-2}\cos 2kx, \quad x\in[\pi/4,\pi/2]; \] an estimate for the derivative \(g_n'\) then allows us to conclude the required result from \[ g_n(\pi/2)-g_n(\pi/4)= \int^{\pi/2}_{\pi/4} g_n'(x) dx\to 0 \quad \text{as }n\to\infty. \]
