Question

Prove that:
$\cos\text{A}+\cos3\text{A}+\cos5\text{A}+\cos7\text{A}=4\cos\text{A}\cos2\text{A}\cos4\text{A}$

✓

Answer

We have,
$\text{LHS}=\cos\text{A}+\cos3\text{A}+\cos5\text{A}+\cos7\text{A}$
$=\ [\cos3\text{A}+\cos\text{A}]+[\cos7\text{A}+\cos5\text{A}]$
$=\ \Big[2\cos\Big(\frac{3\text{A}+\text{A}}{2}\Big)\cos\Big(\frac{3\text{A}-\text{A}}{2}\Big)\Big]+\Big[2\cos\Big(\frac{7\text{A}+5\text{A}}{2}\Big)\cos\Big(\frac{7\text{A}-5\text{A}}{2}\Big)\Big]$
$=\ 2\cos2\text{A}\cos\text{A}+2\cos6\text{A}\cos4\text{A}$
$=\ 2\cos\text{A}[\cos2\text{A}+\cos6\text{A}]$
$=\ 2\cos\text{A}[\cos2\text{A}+\cos6\text{A}]$
$=\ 2\cos2\text{A}\Big[2\cos\Big(\frac{6\text{A}+2\text{A}}{2}\Big)\cos\Big(\frac{6\text{A}-\text{A}}{2}\Big)\Big]$
$=\ 4\cos\text{A}[\cos4\text{A}\cos2\text{A}]$
$=\ \text{RHS}$
$\therefore\ \cos\text{A}+\cos3\text{A}+\cos5\text{A}+\cos7\text{A}=4\cos\text{A}\cos2\text{A}\cos4\text{A}$
Hence proved.
