Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: From the given equation, taking the Left Hand Side (LHS) of the equation

Step 2: Simplify the LHS to make it equal to the Right Hand Side (RHS)

LHS = sin^4x - cos^4x = (sin²x)² - (cos²x)²

       = (sin²x - cos²x)(sin²x + cos²x)

       = sin²x - (1 - sin²x)  since sin²x + cos²x = 1

       = 2 sin²x - 1

       = RHS

Hence proved.
