Answer #1

Start with the left hand side and try to get to the right hand side:

sin(4x)=sin[2(2x)] Use sin2A=2sinAcosA:

=2sin(2x)cos(2x) Again use sin2A=2sinAcosA:

=2[2sin(x)cos(x)cos(2x)]

=4sin(x)cos(x)cos(2x)

Here we have a choice for cos(2x) -- choose 2cos^2x-1

=4sin(x)cos(x)[2cos^2(x)-1] Multiply to get:

=8cos^3(x)sin(x)-4sin(x)cos(x) as required.
