Prove $\cos6x=32\cos^{6}x-48\cos^{4}x+18\cos^{2}x-1 $ So far I've done this:
LHS $ =\cos^{2}3x-\sin^{2}3x$
$={(4\cos^{3}x-3\cos{x})}^2 -{(3\sin{x}-4\sin^{3}x)}^2$
$=16\cos^{6}x+9\cos^{2}x-24\cos^{4}x-9\sin^{2}x-16\sin^{6}x+24\sin^{4}x$
I can tell I'm going in the right direction but how should I proceed further?

EDIT I used the identity $\cos{2x}=2\cos^{2}x-1$ to solve it in a simpler way. viz.
LHS  $= 2\cos^{2}3x-1$
$=2{(4\cos^{3}x-3\cos{x})}^2-1$
$2(16\cos^{6}x+9\cos^{2}x-24\cos^{4}x)-1$
$=32\cos^{6}x+18\cos^{2}x-48\cos^{4}x-1$
Still thank you for the answers!

Uain Prosthaphaeresis Formulas, $$\cos6x+\cos 2x=2\cos4x\cos2x\iff\cos6x=\cos2x(2\cos4x-1)$$
$\cos4x=2\cos^22x-1$ and $\cos2x=2\cos^2x-1$
