2021/110) express \cos\, 5t in term of power of \cos\, t

We have

\cos\, 5t = (\cos\, 5 t + \cos\, t) - \cos\, t

= 2 \cos\, 3t \cos\, 2t - \cos\, t using \cos\, A + \cos\, B = 2 \cos \frac{A+B}{2} \cos \frac{A-B}{2}

= 2 * (4 \cos ^3 t - 3 \cos\, t)(2\cos ^2 t - 1) - \cos\, t using formula for cos 3t and cos 2t

= 16 \cos^5 t - 20 \cos^3 t + 6 \cos t -\cos t

= 16 \cos^5 t - 20 \cos^3 t + 5 \cos t
