trigonometry - Prove that cosalpha+cos2alpha+cdots+cosnalpha=frac12left(fracsinleft(n+frac12right)alphasinfrac12alpha1right)

I have to prove using mathematical induction that:
cosα+cos2α++cosnα=12(sin(n+12)αsin12α1)

If I substitute n equals one then I'm giving a such thing as:
cosα=12(sin32αsin12α1)
But I don't what I should do to prove nextly and that this equation is completed for n+1.
