On the Strengthened Jordan's Inequality
Journal of Inequalities and Applications volume 2007, Article number: 074328 (2008)
Abstract
The main purpose of this paper is to present two methods of sharpening Jordan's inequality. The first method shows that one can obtain new strengthened Jordan's inequalities from old ones. The other method shows that one can sharpen Jordan's inequality by choosing proper functions in the monotone form of L'Hopital's rule. Finally, we improve a related inequality proposed early by Redheffer.
