How to prove that $left|sum_{k=0}^{n-1}sin(2k+1)xright|$ is bounded
$begingroup$
I'm currently studying Fourier series using a textbook which unfortunately provides only partial solutions to its explanations. To show the uniform convergence of a Fourier series I need to prove the assumption from the title above. Any help is very much appreciated.

You can calculate this sum explicitly:
begin{align}
sum_{k=0}^{n-1}sin(2k+1)x &= operatorname{Im}left(sum_{k=0}^{n-1}e^{(2k+1)ix}right)\
&= operatorname{Im}left(e^{ix}sum_{k=0}^{n-1}left(e^{2ix}right)^{k}right)\
&= operatorname{Im}left(e^{ix}frac{e^{2nix}-1}{e^{2ix}-1}right)\
&= operatorname{Im}left(frac{e^{2nix}-1}{e^{ix}-e^{-ix}}right)\
&= operatorname{Im}left(frac{cos(2nix)-1+isin(2pi ix)}{2isin x}right)\
&= frac{sin(2nx)}{2sin x}
end{align}
Now it should be clear that it is bounded.
