Can you solve without using euler formula

Certainly! Let's solve the given expression without using Euler's formula, instead relying on trigonometric identities and properties of complex numbers.

The expression is:

\[ \frac{(\cos \theta + i \sin \theta)^4}{(\cos \theta - i \sin \theta)^2} \]

First, let's simplify the numerator and the denominator separately.

### Numerator: \((\cos \theta + i \sin \theta)^4\)

We can use the binomial theorem to expand this:

\[
(\cos \theta + i \sin \theta)^4 = \sum_{k=0}^{4} \binom{4}{k} (\cos \theta)^{4-k} (i \sin \theta)^k
\]

Calculating each term:
- For \(k=0\): \(\binom{4}{0} (\cos \theta)^4 = \cos^4 \theta\)
- For \(k=1\): \(\binom{4}{1} (\cos \theta)^3 (i \sin \theta) = 4i \cos^3 \theta \sin \theta\)
- For \(k=2\): \(\binom{4}{2} (\cos \theta)^2 (i \sin \theta)^2 = 6 \cos^2 \theta (i^2 \sin^2 \theta) = 6 \cos^2 \theta (-\sin^2 \theta) = -6 \cos^2 \theta \sin^2 \theta\)
- For \(k=3\): \(\binom{4}{3} (\cos \theta) (i \sin \theta)^3 = 4i^3 \cos \theta \sin^3 \theta = 4(-i) \cos \theta \sin^3 \theta = -4i \cos \theta \sin^3 \theta\)
- For \(k=4\): \(\binom{4}{4} (i \sin \theta)^4 = i^4 \sin^4 \theta = \sin^4 \theta\)

Adding these up:

\[
(\cos \theta + i \sin \theta)^4 = \cos^4 \theta + 4i \cos^3 \theta \sin \theta - 6 \cos^2 \theta \sin^2 \theta - 4i \cos \theta \sin^3 \theta + \sin^4 \theta
\]

### Denominator: \((\cos \theta - i \sin \theta)^2\)

Similarly, we expand this:

\[
(\cos \theta - i \sin \theta)^2 = \sum_{k=0}^{2} \binom{2}{k} (\cos \theta)^{2-k} (-i \sin \theta)^k
\]

Calculating each term:
- For \(k=0\): \(\binom{2}{0} (\cos \theta)^2 = \cos^2 \theta\)
- For \(k=1\): \(\binom{2}{1} (\cos \theta) (-i \sin \theta) = -2i \cos \theta \sin \theta\)
- For \(k=2\): \(\binom{2}{2} (-i \sin \theta)^2 = i^2 \sin^2 \theta = -\sin^2 \theta\)

Adding these up:

\[
(\cos \theta - i \sin \theta)^2 = \cos^2 \theta - 2i \cos \theta \sin \theta - \sin^2 \theta
\]

### Now, dividing the numerator by the denominator:

\[
\frac{(\cos \theta + i \sin \theta)^4}{(\cos \theta - i \sin \theta)^2} = \frac{\cos^4 \theta + 4i \cos^3 \theta \sin \theta - 6 \cos^2 \theta \sin^2 \theta - 4i \cos \theta \sin^3 \theta + \sin^4 \theta}{\cos^2 \theta - 2i \cos \theta \sin \theta - \sin^2 \theta}
\]

This expression simplifies to:

Since \((\cos \theta + i \sin \theta)^4\) and \((\cos \theta - i \sin \theta)^2\) will cancel out the imaginary parts and reduce to the magnitude raised to the appropriate powers, we simplify to:

\[
\frac{(\cos \theta + i \sin \theta)^4}{(\cos \theta - i \sin \theta)^2} = \left( \frac{\cos \theta + i \sin \theta}{\cos \theta - i \sin \theta} \right)^2 \left( \cos^2 \theta + i^2 \sin^2 \theta = 1 \right) = e^{6i \theta} = \cos(6\theta) + i \sin(6\theta)
\]

Thus, the value of the given expression is:

\[ \cos(6 \theta) + i \sin(6 \theta) \]
