If $\text{T}_\text{n}=\sin^\text{n}\text{x}+\cos^\text{n}\text{x},$ Prove that
$\frac{\text{T}_3-\text{T}_5}{\text{T}_1}=\frac{\text{T}_5-\text{T}_7}{\text{T}_3}$
Answer
We Have $\text{T}_\text{n}=\sin^\text{n}\text{x}+\cos^\text{n}\text{x}\cdots(\text{i})$
To show: $\frac{\text{T}_3-\text{T}_5}{\text{T}_1}=\frac{\text{T}_5-\text{T}_7}{\text{T}_3}$
$\text{L.H.S}=\frac{\text{T}_3-\text{T}_5}{\text{T}_1}$
$=\frac{(\sin^3\text{x}+\cos^3\text{x})-(\sin^5\text{x}+\cos^5\text{x})}{\sin\text{x}+\cos\text{x}} [$Substituting the value of $T_3, T_5$ and $T_1$ From $(i)]$
$=\frac{\sin^3\text{x}-\sin^5\text{x}+\cos^3\text{x}-\cos^5\text{x}}{\sin\text{x}+\cos\text{x}}$
$=\frac{\sin^3\text{x}-(1-\sin^2\text{x})+\cos^3\text{x}(1-\cos^2\text{x})}{\sin\text{x}+\cos\text{x}}$
$=\frac{\sin^3\text{x}\cos^2\text{x}+\cos^3\text{x}\sin^2\text{x}}{\sin\text{x}+\cos\text{x}}$ $\Big[\because1-\sin^2\text{x}=\cos^2\text{x}\text{ and }1-\cos^2\text{x}=\sin^2\text{x}\Big]$
$=\frac{\sin^2\text{x}\cos^2\text{x}+(\sin\text{x}+\cos\text{x})}{\sin\text{x}+\cos\text{x}}$
$=\sin^2\text{x}\cos^2\text{x}$
$\text{R.H.S}=\frac{\sin^5\text{x}+\cos^5\text{x}-(\sin^7\text{x}+\cos^7\text{x})}{\sin^3\text{x}+\cos^3\text{x}}$
$=\frac{\sin^5\text{x}-\sin^7\text{x}+\cos^5\text{x}-\cos^7\text{x}}{\sin^3\text{x}+\cos^3\text{x}}$
$=\frac{\sin^5\text{x}(1-\sin^2\text{x})+\cos^5\text{x}(1-\cos^2\text{x})}{\sin^3\text{x}+\cos^3\text{x}}$
$=\frac{\sin^5\text{x}\cos^2\text{x}+\cos^5\text{x}\sin^2\text{x}}{\sin^3\text{x}+\cos^3\text{x}}$
$=\frac{\sin^5\text{x}\cos^2\text{x}(\sin^2\text{x}+\cos^3\text{x})}{\sin^2\text{x}+\cos^2\text{x}}$
$=\sin^2\text{x}\cos^2\text{x}$

$6\text{T}_{10}-15\text{T}_8+10\text{T}_6-1=0$
Answer
$=-6\sin^2\text{x}\cos^2\text{x}(\sin^4\text{x}+\cos^4\text{x})+6\sin^4\cos^4\text{x}\\\ \ \ +9\sin^2\text{x}\cos^2\text{x}(\sin^4\text{x}+\cos^4\text{x})-3\sin^2\text{x}\cos^2\text{x}$

Question 35 Marks
If $\text{T}_\text{n}=\sin^\text{n}\text{x}+\cos^\text{n}\text{x},$ Prove that
$2 \text{T}_6 - 3\text{ T}_4 + 1 = 0$
Answer
$\text{L.H.S}=2\text{T}_6-3\text{T}_4+1$
$=2(\sin^6\text{x}+\cos^6\text{x})-3(\sin^4\text{x}+\cos^4\text{x})+1$
$=2((\sin^2\text{x})^3+(\cos^2\text{x})^3-2(\sin^2\text{x})^2+(\cos^2\text{x})^2)+1$
$=2((\sin^2\text{x}+\cos^2\text{x})(\sin^2\text{x})^2+(\cos^2\text{x})^2-(\sin^2\text{x}\cos^2\text{x}))\\\ \ \ -3((\sin^2\text{x})^2+(\cos^2\text{x})^2+2\sin^2\text{x}\cos^2\text{x}-2\sin^2\text{x}\cos^2\text{x})=1   [$ Using $a^3 + b^3 =(a + b)(a^2 + b^2 - ab)$ and adding and subtracting $2\sin^2\text{x}\cos^2\text{x}\big]$

$=2(1-3\sin^2\text{x}\cos^2\text{x})-3\sin^2\text{x}\cos^2\text{x}+1$
