Answer

\[\cos 8x=\frac{1}{2}e^{8ix}+\frac{1}{2}e^{-8ix}\]

Work Step by Step

According to question we will use the result \[\cos bx=\frac{1}{2}\left(e^{ibx}+e^{-ibx}\right)\;\;\;\;\;\;\;....(1)\] Using equation (1) with $b=8$ \[\cos 8x=\frac{1}{2}\left(e^{i8x}+e^{-i8x}\right)\] \[\cos 8x=\frac{1}{2}e^{8ix}+\frac{1}{2}e^{-8ix}\] Hence $\;\cos 8x=\frac{1}{2}e^{8ix}+\frac{1}{2}e^{-8ix}$.
