1. Use the power reducing formula: sin^2 A + cos^2 A = 1
2. Substitute sin^2 3x for (1 - cos^2 3x): sin 3x cos 3x = (1 - cos^2 3x)cos 3x
3. Use the power reducing formula: cos 2A = cos^2 A - sin^2 A
4. Substitute cos^2 3x - sin^2 3x for cos 2x: sin 3x cos 3x = (1 - cos^2 3x)(cos^2 3x - sin^2 3x)
5. Simplify: sin 3x cos 3x = cos^3 3x - sin^3 3x
Use the power reducing_formulas to rewrite sin 3x cos3x in terms of the first power of cosine.
