Uniform convergence of $frac{y/(2N)}{sin(y/(2N))}$ towards 1
$begingroup$
I can't come up with a proof, why $f_N(y) := frac{frac{y}{2N}}{sinleft(frac{y}{2N}right)}$ converges uniformly against $1$ for $yin(0,pi), Ntoinfty$.
I would be thankful for any advice.

One idea is to use $x-x^3/6 leq sin(x) leq x$ which holds for $x geq 0$.

@stressedout The poles are nowhere to be seen here, even when $N=1$, because of the $2$. $1-x^2/6 leq sin(x)/x leq 1$ simply becomes $1 leq x/sin(x) leq frac{1}{1-x^2/6}$ which is valid for $0<x<sqrt{6}$, and $pi/2<sqrt{6}$.

A solution using Dini's theorem
The $f_n$ can be extended by continuity at $0$ by raising $f_n(0)=1$. Hence, we can consider the continuous extended maps on the compact interval $[0,pi]$.
For $n ge 2$ the sequence $(f_n)$ is uniformly bounded below by a constant strictly positive. Hence proving the uniform convergence of $(f_n)$ is equivalent to the proof of the uniform convergence of $(1/f_n)$. And this is provided by Dini's theorem as for all $x in [0, pi]$ the sequence $(1/f_n(x))$ is increasing.
