Express cos 4x interm of cos x.
$$\mathrm{Express}\:\mathrm{cos}\:\mathrm{4x}\:\mathrm{interm}\:\mathrm{of}\:\mathrm{cos}\:\mathrm{x}. \\ $$

cos4x = 2cos^2 2x−1  cos4x = 2(2cos^2 x−1)^2 −1  cos4x = 2(4cos^4 x−4cos^2 x+1)−1  cos4x = 8cos^4 x−8cos^2 x+1
$$\mathrm{cos4}{x}\:=\:\mathrm{2cos}^{\mathrm{2}} \mathrm{2}{x}−\mathrm{1} \\ $$$$\mathrm{cos4}{x}\:=\:\mathrm{2}\left(\mathrm{2cos}^{\mathrm{2}} {x}−\mathrm{1}\right)^{\mathrm{2}} −\mathrm{1} \\ $$$$\mathrm{cos4}{x}\:=\:\mathrm{2}\left(\mathrm{4cos}^{\mathrm{4}} {x}−\mathrm{4cos}^{\mathrm{2}} {x}+\mathrm{1}\right)−\mathrm{1} \\ $$$$\mathrm{cos4}{x}\:=\:\mathrm{8cos}^{\mathrm{4}} {x}−\mathrm{8cos}^{\mathrm{2}} {x}+\mathrm{1} \\ $$$$ \\ $$
