The correct answer is: 0

Given that

eix=cosx+isinx

imaginary roots always occurs in pairs

e-ix is also solution of

zn+p1zn-1+p2zn-2++pn=0

i.e.,

pneixn+pn-1eixn-1+pn-2eixn-2+.....p1eix+1 = 0

pncosnx+isinnx+pn-1cosn-1x+isinn-1x+pn-2cosn-2x+isinn-2x+......p1cosx+isinx+1=0

By comparing real and imaginary roots

pnsinnx+pn-1sinn-1x++p1sinx+1=0.
