Let nn be an integer with n1n \geqslant 1. Are the following statements true or false? Give proofs.

(i) There exists a real polynomial TnT_{n} of degree nn such that

Tn(cost)=cosntT_{n}(\cos t)=\cos n t

for all real tt.

(ii) There exists a real polynomial RnR_{n} of degree nn such that

Rn(cosht)=coshntR_{n}(\cosh t)=\cosh n t

for all real tt.

(iii) There exists a real polynomial SnS_{n} of degree nn such that

Sn(cost)=sinntS_{n}(\cos t)=\sin n t

for all real tt.
