Homework Statement
This is, strictly speaking, not a homework question. I have already solved this, but I think that there is a much better method to solve it.
In the equation below, what relationship must w and q satisfy? If the question is not clear, please read the bottom of the post.
Homework Equations
Exp[-i*q*t]+Exp[-i*w*t]=-2
The Attempt at a Solution
I turned everything into cosines and sines, and used the trigonometric sum to product formulas.
In case the question isn't clear, the answer is w/q= (2m-1)/(2n-1), where m and n are positive integers and not equal to each other.
