Question Number 76633 by mathmax by abdo last updated on 28/Dec/19

calculate cos^6 ((π/8))+cos^6 (((3π)/8))+cos^6 (((5π)/8))+cos^6 (((7π)/8))

$${calculate}\:{cos}^{\mathrm{6}} \left(\frac{\pi}{\mathrm{8}}\right)+{cos}^{\mathrm{6}} \left(\frac{\mathrm{3}\pi}{\mathrm{8}}\right)+{cos}^{\mathrm{6}} \left(\frac{\mathrm{5}\pi}{\mathrm{8}}\right)+{cos}^{\mathrm{6}} \left(\frac{\mathrm{7}\pi}{\mathrm{8}}\right) \\ $$

cos (π/8) =((√(2+(√2)))/2)  cos ((3π)/8) =((√(2−(√2)))/2)  cos ((5π)/8) =−((√(2−(√2)))/2)  cos ((7π)/8) =−((√(2+(√2)))/2)  ⇒ answer is 2×((((√(2+(√2)))/2))^6 +(((√(2+(√2)))/2))^6 )=(5/4)

$$\mathrm{cos}\:\frac{\pi}{\mathrm{8}}\:=\frac{\sqrt{\mathrm{2}+\sqrt{\mathrm{2}}}}{\mathrm{2}} \\ $$$$\mathrm{cos}\:\frac{\mathrm{3}\pi}{\mathrm{8}}\:=\frac{\sqrt{\mathrm{2}−\sqrt{\mathrm{2}}}}{\mathrm{2}} \\ $$$$\mathrm{cos}\:\frac{\mathrm{5}\pi}{\mathrm{8}}\:=−\frac{\sqrt{\mathrm{2}−\sqrt{\mathrm{2}}}}{\mathrm{2}} \\ $$$$\mathrm{cos}\:\frac{\mathrm{7}\pi}{\mathrm{8}}\:=−\frac{\sqrt{\mathrm{2}+\sqrt{\mathrm{2}}}}{\mathrm{2}} \\ $$$$\Rightarrow\:\mathrm{answer}\:\mathrm{is}\:\mathrm{2}×\left(\left(\frac{\sqrt{\mathrm{2}+\sqrt{\mathrm{2}}}}{\mathrm{2}}\right)^{\mathrm{6}} +\left(\frac{\sqrt{\mathrm{2}+\sqrt{\mathrm{2}}}}{\mathrm{2}}\right)^{\mathrm{6}} \right)=\frac{\mathrm{5}}{\mathrm{4}} \\ $$
