**Verify the identity. (Simplify at each step)**

The given identity to verify is:

\[ 3 \cos^2 \beta - 3 \sin^2 \beta = 3 - 6 \sin^2 \beta \]

**Step-by-Step Simplification:**

1. **Start with the left-hand side:**

\[ 3 \cos^2 \beta - 3 \sin^2 \beta \]

2. **Factor out the common term "3":**

\[ 3 (\cos^2 \beta - \sin^2 \beta) \]

(Note: In the problem image, a blue box follows this step, indicating where the next term should be filled, but contains a red 'X' suggesting a mistake or incomplete step in the provided solution.)

3. **Compare it with the right-hand side:**

\[ 3 - 6 \sin^2 \beta \]

At this stage, there appears to be an error pointed out (red 'X') in the verification step shown in the image. 

Given the current identity setup and simplification steps, the user must accurately fill in the missing steps to ensure that both sides of the equation match. 

The steps should correct or fully simplify any discrepancy effectively. 

This transcription should guide students to ensuring every factor and simplification is accurately followed to verify mathematical identities.
