Question
Prove that:
$3\text{x}+\sin2\text{x}-\sin\text{x}=4\sin\text{x}\cos\frac{\text{x}}{2}\cos\frac{3\text{x}}{2}$

Answer

$\sin3\text{x}+\sin2\text{x}-\sin\text{x}$
$=(\sin3\text{x}-\sin\text{x})+\sin2\text{x}$
$=2\cos\Big(\frac{3\text{x}+\text{x}}{2}\Big)\sin\Big(\frac{3\text{x}-\text{x}}{\text{2}}\Big)+2\sin\text{x}\cos\text{x}$ $\begin{bmatrix}\because\sin\text{A}-\sin\text{B}=2\cos\Big(\frac{\text{A+B}}{2}\Big)\sin\Big(\frac{\text{A}-\text{B}}{2}\Big)\\\sin2\text{x}=2\sin\text{x}\cos\text{x}\end{bmatrix}$
$=2\cos(2\text{x})\sin\text{x}+2\sin\text{x}\cos\text{x}$
$=2\sin\text{x}[\cos(2\text{x})+\cos\text{x}]$
$=2\sin\text{x}\Big[2\cos\Big(\frac{2\text{x}+\text{x}}{2}\Big)+\cos\Big(\frac{2\text{x}-\text{x}}{2}\Big)\Big]$ $\Big[\because\cos\text{A}+\cos\text{B}=2\cos\Big(\frac{\text{A+B}}{2}\Big)\cos\Big(\frac{\text{A}-\text{B}}{2}\Big)\Big]$
$=4\sin\text{x}\cos\frac{3\text{x}}{2}\cos\frac{\text{x}}{2}$
