Hello,
Some symbolic expressions claim that they are not real
sage: cos(pi/7).is_real()
False
sage: (exp(I*pi/7) + exp(-I*pi/7)).is_real()
False
But conversion to real floating points perfectly works
sage: RR(cos(pi/7))
0.900968867902419
sage: RR(exp(I*pi/7) + exp(-I*pi/7))
1.80193773580484
I guess we could (and should) make it consistent. See also the related
#16436.
