We justify the Galerkin and collocations methods for one class of singular integro-differential
equations defined on the pair of the weighted Sobolev spaces. The exact solution of the considered equation is
approximated by the linear combinations of the Chebyshev polynomials of the first kind.
According to the Galerkin method, we equate the Fourier coefficients with respect to the Chebyshev polynomials of the second kind
in the right-hand side and the left-hand side of the equation. According to collocations method, we equate the values
of the right-hand side and the left-hand side of the equation at the nodes being the roots of the Chebyshev polynomials the second kind.
The choice of the first kind Chebyshev polynomials as coordinate functions is due to the possibility
to calculate explicitly the singular integrals with Cauchy kernel of the products of these polynomials and corresponding weight functions.
This allows us to construct simple well converging methods for the wide class of singular integro-differential
equations on the interval $(-1,1)$.
