See the steps.

Work Step by Step

$\sin{(\dfrac{\pi}{4}+x)} + \sin{(\dfrac{\pi}{4}-x)} = $ $$\sin{\dfrac{\pi}{4}} \cos{x} + \cos{\dfrac{\pi}{4}} \sin{x} + \sin{\dfrac{\pi}{4}} \cos{x} - \cos{\dfrac{\pi}{4}} \sin{x}$$ $LHS = 2 \sin{\dfrac{\pi}{4}} \cos{x} = 2 \times \dfrac{1}{\sqrt{2}} \cos{x} = \sqrt{2} \cos{x}$ $LHS = RHS$
