I know how to sketch the spectrum of \$m(t) = \cos(1000)t + \cos (3000)t\$
But I stack with that….when it's multiplied? How to sketch the spectrum \$m(t) = \cos(1000)t \times \cos(3000)t\$?

Best Answer
Maybe you remember the sine and cosine product formulas from high school?
Replace \$a\$ and \$b\$ with \$1000t\$ and \$3000t\$ and you get a sum of new frequencies. This is also the concept used in superheterodyne radio receivers.
