Formula

Equals sqrt(10 - 2*sqrt*(5)) / (-8 + 2*sqrt(5)).

Equals (-1)*Sum_{k>=0} sin(9*k*Pi/5)/2^k.

Peter J. C. Moses (May 22 2024) found the following generalized summation identities for the eight sequences in Comments and many other sequences:

Sum_{k>=0} sin(h*k + Pi/m)/b^(k+r) = b^(1-r)*(b*sin(Pi/m) + sin(h - Pi/m)/(1 + b^2 - 2*b*cos*(Pi/m)).

Sum_{k>=0} cos(h*k + Pi/m)/b^(k+r) = b^(1-r)*(b*cos(Pi/m) + cos(h - Pi/m)/(1 + b^2 - 2*b*cos*(Pi/m)).

Mathematica

{b, m, h} = {2, 5, 1}; s = Sum[Sin[ h  k  Pi/m]/b^k, {k, 0, Infinity}]
d = N[s, 100]
First[RealDigits[d], 100]
