Functions of a Real Variable, chapter VI, § 2. EULERIAN EXPANSIONS OF THE TRIGONOMETRIC FUNCTIONS AND BERNOULLI NUMBERS

For every integer n one has

sin⁡πnsin⁡2πn…sin⁡(n−1)πn=n2n−1. \sin \frac{\pi}{n} \sin \frac{2\pi}{n} \ldots \sin \frac{(n-1)\pi}{n} = \frac{n}{2^{n-1}}.
(3)

It suffices to divide both sides of (2) by sin⁡z\sin z and let zz tend to 0.

Bourbaki puts the proof directly after the statement, so what is above is the statement and its proof together.
