prove cos(4x)=1-8sin^2(x)cos(x)

prove

cos (4 x) = 1 - 8 sin^{2} (x) cos (x)

False

Solution steps

cos (4 x) = 1 - 8 sin^{2} (x) cos (x)

Show that the two sides are not equal

For

cos (4 x) = 1 - 8 sin^{2} (x) cos (x)

plug in

x = 1

cos (4 \cdot 1) = - 0.65364 \dots

cos (4 \cdot 1)

Refine to a decimal form

= - 0.65364 \dots

1 - 8 sin^{2} (1) cos (1) = - 2.06058 \dots

1 - 8 sin^{2} (1) cos (1)

Refine to a decimal form

= - 2.06058 \dots

The two sides are not equal

\Rightarrow False
