Express cos(3θ) as a polynomial in terms of cos(θ).

cos(3θ) = cos(2θ + θ)

= cos(2θ) cos(θ) - sin(2θ) sin(θ)

cos(2θ) = 2cos2(θ) - 1
sin(2θ) = 2sin(θ)cos(θ)

= 2cos2(θ) − 1 cos(θ) -
2sin(θ)cos(θ) sin(θ)
= 2 cos3(θ) - cos(θ) - 2 sin2(θ) cos(θ)
sin2 A + cos2A = 1

= 2 cos3(θ) - cos(θ) - 2 1− cos2A cos(θ)

= 2 cos3(θ) - cos(θ) – 2cos(θ) + 2 cos3(θ)

cos(3θ) = 4 cos3(θ) - 3cos(θ)

Establish the following identity using double-angle formulas:

1 + sin(2θ) = (sinθ + cosθ)2

= sin2θ + 2sinθcosθ + cos2θ sin2 A + cos2A = 1
