algebra precalculus - How to prove the identity 3sin4x2sin6x=13cos4x+2cos6x?



I'm trying to prove a trigonometric identity but I can't. I've been trying a lot but I can't prove it. The identity says like this:
3sin4x2sin6x=13cos4x+2cos6x




The identity would be easy if 1cos4x=sin4x and 1cos6x=sin6x but we know that sin4x+cos4x isn't equal with 1 and sin6x+cos6x isn't equal with 1.



Can anybody help me?!



Thank you!


Answer



3sin4x2sin6x=3(sin2x)22(sin2x)3=(sin2x)2(32sin2x)



Now we can use the Pythagorean Identity: sin2x+cos2x=1sin2x=1cos2x







3sin4x2sin6x=3(sin2x)22(sin2x)3=(sin2x)2(32sin2x)=(1cos2x)2(32(1cos2x))=(12cos2x+cos4x)(1+2cos2x)=13cos4x+2cos6x
