Answer:
in triangle
A + B + C = 180
B + C = 180 - A
sin((B+C)/2) = cos A/2
LHS = sin((180-A)/2)
= sin(90-A/2). we know sin(90-∅) = cos∅
= cosA/2
LHS = RHS
hence proved

As we know, for any given triangle, the sum of all its interior angles is equals to 180°.
Thus,
A + B + C = 180° ….(1)
Now we can write the above equation as;
⇒ B + C = 180° – A
Dividing by 2 on both the sides;
⇒ (B + C)/2 = (180° – A)/2
⇒ (B + C)/2 = 90° – A/2
Now, put sin function on both sides.
⇒ sin (B + C)/2 = sin (90° – A/2)
Since,
sin (90° – A/2) = cos A/2
Therefore,
sin (B + C)/2 = cos A/2
Hope it's Helpful....:)
