A+B+C=180
B+C=180-A
B+C/2=90-A/2
Sin(B+C/2)=Sin(90-A/2)
Sin(B+C/2)=CosA/2

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....:)
