Q: Proving $\pi=(27S-36)/(8\sqrt{3})$, where $S=\sum_{n=0}^\infty\frac{\left(\left\lfloor\frac{n}{2}\right\rfloor!\right)^2}{n!}$

XiortilI have to prove that: $$\pi=\frac{27S-36}{8\sqrt{3}}$$ where I know that $$S=\sum_{n=0}^\infty\frac{\left(\left\lfloor\frac{n}{2}\right\rfloor!\right)^2}{n!}$$ Where do I get started?

For discussion: this question is clearly a duplicate. However, I would argue that, as written, it is a contextless PSQ. The answer provides no information which is not already included in the dupe target. As such, there is not much point in keeping the question around.
I have long argued that when one votes-to-close, the most appropriate close reason is "This lacks context." Once the issue of context is addressed, then it is reasonable to ask if a question is a duplicate, then close it as such if it is, indeed, a previously asked question.
In this case, it doesn't much matter, as there is a highly upvoted answer, hence Roomba won't every clean it up (no matter the close reason).

Q: Too many duplicates of question

DDD4C4UProof of $\sin nx=2^{n-1}\prod_{k=0}^{n-1} \sin\left( x + \frac{k\pi}{n} \right)$ Prove that $\prod_{k=1}^{n-1}\sin\frac{k \pi}{n} = \frac{n}{2^{n-1}}$ Prove that $\prod_{k=1}^{n-1}\sin\frac{k \pi}{n} = \frac{n}{2^{n-1}}$ Proof of $\sin nx=2^{n-1}\prod_{k=0}^{n-1} \sin\left( x + \frac{k\pi}{n}...

 
@T.S I'm not sure why that meta post needs discussion here. As @asaf pointed out, there are only two questions there. Close one as a duplicate of the other...

@XanderHenderson Well, just posted here. There was one second I mistakenly though D in CURED means "Duplicate". Active users here may want to do something about it (Close one of the duplicates maybe? Not sure.). Only mods can merge posts though.
