sinθ + sin²θ + sin³θ = 1 

=>sinθ + sin²θ + sin³θ = 1 
=>sinθ + sin²θ + sin³θ = (1-sin²θ)=cos²θ 
square both sides you get 
=>sin⁶θ + 2sin⁴θ+ sin²θ=cos⁴θ 
=> replace sin by cos 
=>(1-cos²θ)³ + 2(1-cos²θ)² +(1-cos²θ) - cos⁴θ=0
open the brackets and simplify further to get 
=> -cos⁶θ + 4cos⁴θ -8cos²θ +4=0 
=>cos⁶θ – 4cos⁴θ + 8cos²θ = 4 
hence proved..
