trigonometric identities:
cosine of sum, cosine of difference:
---
cos(x + y) = cosx cosy - sinx siny
cos(x - y) = cosx cosy + sinx siny
---
cos(x + y) + cos(x - y) = cosx cosy - sinx siny + cosx cosy + sinx siny
cos(x + y) + cos(x - y) = cosx cosy + cosx cosy - sinx siny + sinx siny
cos(x + y) + cos(x - y) = cosx cosy + cosx cosy + 0
cos(x + y) + cos(x - y) = 2 cosx cosy
