To prove that \( \cos\left(\frac{\pi}{4} + x\right) + \cos\left(\frac{\pi}{4} - x\right) = \sqrt{2} \cos x \), we will start by expanding the left-hand side (LHS) using trigonometric identities. ### Step 1: Write down the LHS \[ \text{LHS} = \cos\left(\frac{\pi}{4} + x\right) + \cos\left(\frac{\pi}{4} - x\right) \] ### Step 2: Use the cosine addition and subtraction formulas ...
