ok..
solution:
sin(p/8) = sin(7p/8)
sin(3p/8)=sin(5p/8)
therefore, the equation reduces down to:
2*[sin4(p/8) + sin4(3p/8)]
now, sin2(p/8) = [1-cos(p/4)]/2
also, sin2(3p/8) = [1-cos(3p/4)]/2
i guess now it will be easy to solve the rest

yeah but u can substitute values of cos(p/4) and cos(3p/4) now..then square the whole term
