(i) Linear - Yes
(ii) Time invariant - Yes
(iii) Memoryless - No
(iv) Causal - Yes
(v) BIBO Stable - No (ex. when x[n] = 1 for all n)

$ \begin{align} x[n] &= sin[\pi n/4] \\ x[n] &= \frac{e^{j \pi n/4} - e^{-j \pi n/4}}{2j} \end{align} $

In an LTI System, when

$ \begin{align} x[n] &= e^{j \omega_0 n}, \\ y[n] &= H(\omega_0)e^{j \omega_0 n} \end{align} $

Using H($ \omega $) from part c,

$ \begin{align} y[n] &= \frac{H(\pi /4)e^{j \pi n/4} - H(-\pi /4)e^{-j \pi n/4}}{2j} \\ y[n] &= \frac{1}{2j} \left( \frac{cos(\pi /8)e^{j \pi n/4}}{jsin(\pi /8)} - \frac{cos(-\pi /8)e^{-j \pi n/4}}{jsin(-\pi /8)} \right) \\ y[n] &= \frac{-1}{2} \left( \frac{cos(\pi /8)e^{j \pi n/4}}{sin(\pi /8)} + \frac{cos(\pi /8)e^{-j \pi n/4}}{sin(\pi /8)} \right) \\ y[n] &= \frac{-1}{2} \frac{cos(\pi /8)}{sin(\pi /8)} \left( e^{j \pi n/4} + e^{-j \pi n/4} \right) \\ y[n] &= \frac{-1}{2} \frac{cos(\pi /8)}{sin(\pi /8)} 2 cos(\pi n/4) \\ y[n] &= - \frac{cos(\pi /8)}{sin(\pi /8)}cos(\pi n/4) \\ \end{align} $
