SOLUTION: A) express cos3x in terms of cosx. I have already gotten the answer for this to be 4coscubex-3cosx B) hence, solve, for 0<x<2(3.14),the equation cos3x+2cos2x+4cosx+2=0.

A) express cos3x in terms of cosx. I have already gotten the answer for this to be 4coscubex-3cosx
cos(3x) = 4cos^3(x) - 3cos(x)
----
Use parentheses and ^ for exponents.
==========================
B) hence, solve, for 0 < x < 2pi, the equation cos3x+2cos2x+4cosx+2=0.
--------
Is it cos^3(x) ?
or cos(3x) ?
