The value of sin8θ+cos8θ+sin6θcos2θ +3sin4θcos2θ+cos6θsin2θ+3sin2θcos4θ is equal to
cos22θ
sin22θ
cos32θ+sin32θ
none of these
We have,
sin8θ+cos8θ+sin6θcos2θ+3sin4θcos2θ+cos6θsin2θ+3sin2θcos4θ =sin8θ+cos8θ+sin2θcos2θ(sin4θ+cos4θ+3sin2θ+3cos2θ)
=(sin4θ+cos4θ)2−2sin4θcos4θ+14sin22θ{(sin2θ+cos2θ)2−12sin22θ+3} =1−sin22θ42−18sin42θ+sin22θ−18sin42θ
=1+12sin22θ−316sin42θ =116(16+8sin22θ−3sin42θ)
