Deduce that $sum_{k in mathbb{N}} frac{k^2}{(4k^2-1)^2} = frac{pi^2}{64}$

Deduce that
begin{equation}
sum_{k in mathbb{N}} frac{k^2}{(4k^2-1)^2} = frac{pi^2}{64} end{equation}
Given that f is a function $f: (0,pi) → mathbb{R}$ defined by $ x to cos(x)$.
I have already found the Fourier series of the odd extension of $f$ (which was the first part of the question) and i found it to be
begin{equation}
sum_{n=2}^{infty} frac{2n(1+(-1)^n}{pi(n^2-1)}.
end{equation}
I thought of using Parseval's Theorem however i dont seem to be getting anywhere with it. I would really appreciate some guidance.

Hint You are missing the sins from your series.
Split your sum in n odd and even.
begin{equation}
sum_{n=2}^{infty} frac{2n(1+(-1)^n}{pi(n^2-1)}=left(sum_{k=1}^{infty} frac{4kleft(1+(-1)^{2k}right)}{pi(4k^2-1)}right)+left(sum_{k=1}^{infty} frac{2(2k+1)0}{pi((2k+1)^2-1)}right)\=sum_{k=1}^{infty} frac{8k}{pi(4k^2-1)}
end{equation}
Now use parseval.

An answer has already helped you with Fourier analysis. If you're interested, here is a technique that uses complex analysis. Because your $a_n$ summand is even, use the fact that $sum_{mathbb{N}}a_n=-a_0/2+frac{1}{2}sum_{mathbb{Z}}a_n$. In this case, $a_0=0$.
By the residue theorem, the sum over $mathbb{Z}$ is just the sum of the residues of $-picot(pi z)frac{z^2}{(4z^2-1)^2}$ at $z=pm 1/2$, which is $pi^2/32$.
Your sum is thus
$$sum_{kge 1} frac{k^2}{(4k-1)^2}=frac{pi^2}{64}$$
