  lim_(x→0)  ((cos^3 (2x)−cos (x))/(cos^2 (4x)−cos (2x))) =?

$$\:\:\underset{{x}\rightarrow\mathrm{0}} {\mathrm{lim}}\:\frac{\mathrm{cos}\:^{\mathrm{3}} \left(\mathrm{2}{x}\right)−\mathrm{cos}\:\left({x}\right)}{\mathrm{cos}\:^{\mathrm{2}} \left(\mathrm{4}{x}\right)−\mathrm{cos}\:\left(\mathrm{2}{x}\right)}\:=? \\ $$

  lim_(x→0)  ((cos^3 (2x)−1+1−cos (x))/(cos^2 (4x)−1+1−cos (2x)))   = lim_(x→0)  ((3(cos 2x−1)+2sin^2 ((x/2)))/(2(cos (4x)−1)+2sin^2 (x)))   = ((3(−2)+(1/2))/(2(−2)(4)+2)) =((−((11)/2))/(−14)) = ((11)/(28))
