Prove that:

1.

Solution:

We get

= 0
= RHS

2. (sin 3x + sin x) sin x + (cos 3x – cos x) cos x = 0

Solution: Consider
LHS = (sin 3x + sin x) sin x + (cos 3x – cos x) cos x
By further calculation
= sin 3x sin x + sin² x + cos 3x cos x – cos² x
Taking out the common terms
= cos 3x cos x + sin 3x sin x – (cos² x – sin² x)
Using the formula
cos (A – B) = cos A cos B + sin A sin B
= cos (3x – x) – cos 2x
So we get
= cos 2x – cos 2x
= 0
= RHS

3.

Solution: Consider
LHS = (cos x + cos y) ² + (sin x – sin y) ²
By expanding using formula we get
= cos² x + cos² y + 2 cos x cos y + sin² x + sin² y – 2 sin x sin y
Grouping the terms
= (cos² x + sin² x) + (cos² y + sin² y) + 2 (cos x cos y – sin x sin y)
Using the formula cos (A + B) = (cos A cos B – sin A sin B)
= 1 + 1 + 2 cos (x + y)
By further calculation
= 2 + 2 cos (x + y)
Taking 2 as common
= 2 [1 + cos (x + y)]
From the formula cos 2A = 2 cos² A – 1

4.

Solution:
LHS = (cos x – cos y) ² + (sin x – sin y) ²
By expanding using formula
= cos² x + cos² y – 2 cos x cos y + sin² x + sin² y – 2 sin x sin y
Grouping the terms
= (cos² x + sin² x) + (cos² y + sin² y) – 2 (cos x cos y + sin x sin y)
Using the formula cos (A – B) = cos A cos B + sin A sin B
= 1 + 1 – 2 [cos (x – y)]
By further calculation
= 2 [1 – cos (x – y)]
From formula cos 2A = 1 – 2 sin² A

5. sin x + sin 3x + sin 5x + sin 7x = 4 cos x cos 2x sin 4x
