This expression can be simplified as follows:
cos^B + sin^2B * cos^2B + sin^2B
Since sin^2B + cos^2B = 1, we can substitute in this value:
cos^B + 1 * cos^2B + sin^2B
Now, we can factor out a cos^B:
cos^B(1 + cos^2B) + sin^2B
Finally, we can simplify further using the Pythagorean identity sin^2B = 1 - cos^2B:
cos^B(1 + cos^2B) + 1 - cos^2B
Expanding the terms inside the brackets, we get:
cos^B + cos^3B + 1 - cos^2B
Combining like terms, the final simplified expression is:
cos^3B + 1
This expression can be simplified as follows:
cos^B + sin^2B * cos^2B + sin^2B
Since sin^2B + cos^2B = 1, we can substitute in this value:
cos^B + 1 * cos^2B + sin^2B
Now, we can factor out a cos^B:
cos^B(1 + cos^2B) + sin^2B
Finally, we can simplify further using the Pythagorean identity sin^2B = 1 - cos^2B:
cos^B(1 + cos^2B) + 1 - cos^2B
Expanding the terms inside the brackets, we get:
cos^B + cos^3B + 1 - cos^2B
Combining like terms, the final simplified expression is:
cos^3B + 1
