Solution

The correct option is C 32
Given cos4π8+cos43π8+cos45π8+cos47π8=cos4π8+cos43π8+cos4(π2+π8)+cos4(π2+3π8)

=cos4π8+cos43π8+sin4π8+sin43π8[cos(π2+θ)=sinθ]

=(cos4π8+sin4π8)+(cos43π8+sin43π8)

=(cos2π8+sin2π8)22sin2π8cos2π8+(cos23π8+sin23π8)22sin23π8cos23π8

=112(2sinπ8cosπ8)2+112(2sin3π8cos3π8)2

=212sin2π412sin23π4=212×(12)212×(12)2[sin3π4=sin(ππ4)=sinπ4]

=32
