The Problem:



Denote by $V_(x, y)$ the vertex at ordered pair $(x, y)$ in the Cartesian coordinate system. Denote by $A_(x, y)$ the measure of angle $angle V_(x, y)V_(0, 0)V_(1, 0)$. Let
$$theta = sum_0 le i, j le 5 (i, j) neq (0, 0)A_(i, j)$$
Find $theta pmod2pi$.



I understand the question and everything, but I am slightly overwhelmed about how to find an organized approach to computing the sum of angles. I got the value down to the sum
$$sum_0 le i, j le 5 (i, j) neq (0, 0)arctanfrac ij$$
But I don't know how to evaluate this. $arctan(x+y)$ formula fails. I think there is a different approach I am not aware of.



Is there a nice way to generalize to
$$sum_0 le i, j le k (i, j) neq (0, 0)A_(i, j)$$

    $A(0,0)$ doesn't seem to be well defined but appears to be part of the sum

  • @above, fixed. $A_(0, 0)$ is not part of the sum.

I got it now, Note that if we represent $A_m, n+A_n, m$ in terms of complex numbers we get $arg(m+ni)(n+mi)=pi/2$. There are $k(k+1)$ of these numbers (ignnoring diagonals so we get $(k(k+1)/2)(pi/2)$. Adding back the diagonal (ignoring $(0, 0)$) we get $kpi/4$. $$(k(k+1)/2)(pi/2)+kpi/4=frack(k+2)pi4$$ Which is the general solution. Substituting $k=5$ gives $35pi/4 equiv 3pi/4 pmod2pi$
