Prove the following identities: `sin^4A-cos^4A=sin^2A-cos^2A=2sin^2A-1=1-2cos^2A`

Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

To prove the identity \( \sin^4 A - \cos^4 A = \sin^2 A - \cos^2 A = 2\sin^2 A - 1 = 1 - 2\cos^2 A \), we will start from the left-hand side and show that it equals the right-hand side. ### Step 1: Start with the left-hand side We begin with the expression: \[ \sin^4 A - \cos^4 A \] ...
