If 2cos@ = x+1/x and 2cos# =y + 1/y,then:

prove that xmyn + 1/xmyn = 2cos(m@ + n#)

frm these data we get,
x^2 - 2cos@x + 1 = 0 and y^2 - 2cos#y + 1 = 0

on solving, x=cos@+/- isin@, y= cos# +/- isin#

taking the+ sign, x=ei@, y=ei#

just find x^my^n + 1/(x^my^n) = ei(m@+n#) + e-i(m@+n#)
= 2cos(m@+n#)
