See the steps.

Work Step by Step

$\cos{(x+\dfrac{3\pi}{2})} + \cos{(x-\dfrac{3\pi}{2})} = $ $$\cos{x} \cos{\dfrac{3\pi}{2}} - \sin{x} \sin{\dfrac{3\pi}{2}} + \cos{x} \cos{\dfrac{3\pi}{2}} + \sin{x} \sin{\dfrac{3\pi}{2}}$$ $LHS = 2 \cos{x} \cos{\dfrac{3\pi}{2}} = 2 \cos{x} \times 0 = 0$ $LHS = RHS$
