It's iffy..like I know how to but I don't know how to

OpenStudy (jdoe0001):

\(\bf sin^4(2x)\implies [sin(2x)]^4\implies [sin(2x)]^2\cdot [sin(2x)]^2 \\ \quad \\ \implies sin^2(x)\cdot sin^2(x)\) what do you think?

OpenStudy (jdoe0001):

that's pretty straightforward I'd think

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yea, it kinda is...

Thanks

OpenStudy (jdoe0001):

and you'd do the same with the 2nd one \(\bf sin^4(2x)cos^4(x)\implies [sin(x)]^4[cos(x)]^4 \\ \quad \\\ [sin(x)]^2[sin(x)]^2[cos(x)]^2[cos(x)]^2 \\ \quad \\ \implies sin^2(x)sin^2(x)cos^2(x)cos^2(x)\)

Thank you so much
