Description (last modified by )
As reported in this ask question, Sage makes wrong simplifications in symbolic trigonometry involving fractions:
sage: cos(pi+pi*1/42) cos(1/42*pi)
While it should be -cos(1/42*pi)
.

I do not have intermediate versions of Sage with me, but i confirm that it is a regression since on Sage 5.12, we have:
sage: cos(pi+pi*1/42) cos(43/42*pi) sage: sin(pi+pi/42) sin(43/42*pi)

No, the changes were just a few months ago, will get to it tomorrow.

More precisely, on a 7.2.beta4 version of Sage which i can reach by ssh, it works well:
sage: cos(pi+pi*1/42) cos(43/42*pi) sage: sin(pi+pi*1/42) sin(43/42*pi)
So the regression is very recent, could it be due to the last update of pynac/ginac ?

Almost certainly so. See e.g. this bug, though I assume it is a different particular one.

- Milestone changed from sage-7.3 to sage-duplicate/invalid/wontfix
- Status changed from new to needs_review
This is fixed and doctested in #20742.

- Status changed from needs_review to positive_review
comment:10 Changed 6 years ago by
- Resolution set to wontfix
- Status changed from positive_review to closed
Determined to be invalid/duplicate/wontfix (closing as "wontfix" as a catch-all resolution).
Same with
sin(pi+pi/42)
.
