Fourier Series/Identity Function over Minus Pi to Pi/Proof 1

Proof
From Odd Power is Odd Function, $x$ is an odd function.

By Fourier Series for Odd Function over Symmetric Range, we have:


 * $\ds x \sim \sum_{n \mathop = 1}^\infty b_n \sin n x$

where:

Substituting for $b_n$ in $(1)$:


 * $\ds x = 2 \sum_{n \mathop = 1}^\infty \frac {\paren {-1}^{n + 1} } n \sin n x$

as required.
