I stumbled on the following oddity during an exercise class (sage-6.8,
x86_64-linux, debian 8.2).
{{{
sage: simplify(cos(pi/12))
1/12*sqrt(6)*(sqrt(3) + 3)
sage: simplify(sin(pi/12))
-1/12*sqrt(6)*(sqrt(3) - 3)
sage: simplify(exp(i*pi/12))
e^(1/12*I*pi)
}}}
Is there any rationale for this ? It looks like an inconsistency.
