Identify the given expression as matching the cosine difference formula: \(\cos(\alpha - \beta) = \cos \alpha \cos \beta + \sin \alpha \sin \beta\).
Compare the given expression \(\cos \frac{5\pi}{12} \cos \frac{\pi}{12} + \sin \frac{5\pi}{12} \sin \frac{\pi}{12}\) to the formula and recognize that \(\alpha = \frac{5\pi}{12}\) and \(\beta = \frac{\pi}{12}\).
Apply the formula by rewriting the expression as \(\cos \left( \frac{5\pi}{12} - \frac{\pi}{12} \right)\).
Simplify the angle inside the cosine function by subtracting the fractions: \(\frac{5\pi}{12} - \frac{\pi}{12} = \frac{4\pi}{12}\).
Reduce the fraction \(\frac{4\pi}{12}\) to its simplest form \(\frac{\pi}{3}\), so the expression becomes \(\cos \frac{\pi}{3}\).

Cosine of a Difference Formula

The cosine of a difference of two angles, α and β, is given by cos(α - β) = cos α cos β + sin α sin β. This identity allows rewriting expressions involving products of sines and cosines as a single cosine function of the difference of angles.
