Prove that cot4x (sin5x + sin3x) = cot x (sin5x – sin3x)

To prove cot4x (sin5x + sin3x) = cot x (sin5x – sin3x)

LHS = cot 4x (sin 5x + sin 3x)


We know,



LHS = cot 4x × 2 sin 4x × cos x



LHS = 2 cos 4x cos x


RHS = cot x (sin 5x – sin 3x)


We know,



RHS = cot x × 2 cos 4x × sin x



RHS = 2 cos 4x cos x


LHS = RHS


Hence, proved
