if A, B, C are the interior angles of a triangle of a ABC, show that sin(B+C/2) cosA/2+cos(B+C/2)sin A/2=1.
Answers
Answer:
cos A/2
Step-by-step explanation:
We know that, for a given triangle, the sum of all the interior angles of a triangle is equal to 180°
A + B + C = 180° …………………..(1)
To find the value of (B + C)/2, simplify the equation (1)
⇒ B + C = 180° – A
⇒ (B + C)/2 = (180° – A)/2
⇒ (B + C)/2 = 90° – A/2
Now, multiply both sides by sin functions, we get
⇒ sin (B+C)/2 = sin (90°-A/2)
sin (90°-A/2) = cos A/2
The above equation is equal to
sin (90° – A/2) = sin A/2
sin (B + C)/2 = cos A/2

Given :-
A, B and C are the interior angles of a triangle ABC.
To find :-
sin (B+C)/2 cos A/2 + cos (B+C)/2 sin A/2 = 1
Solution :-
Given that
The interior angles of a triangle ABC are A,B and C
We know that
"The sum of the three interior angles in a triangle is equal to 180° ".
=> A+B+C = 180° ---------------(1)
On dividing by 2 both sides then
=> (A+B+C)/2 = 180°/2
=> (A/2)+(B+C)/2 = 90°
=> (B+C)/2 = 90° - (A/2)----------(2)
On taking 'sine' trigonometric ratio both sides then
=> sin (B+C)/2 = sin [90°-(A/2)]
We know that
sin (90°-A) = cos A
Therefore,sin (B+C)/2 = cos A/2 ---------(3)
On taking ' cosine ' trigonometric ratio both sides of (2) then
=> cos (B+C)/2 = cos [90° - (A/2)]
We know about
cos (90°-A) = sin A
Therefore, cos (B+C)/2 = sin A/2 --------(4)
Now,
On taking LHS :
sin (B+C)/2 cos A/2 + cos (B+C)/2 sin A/2
=> cos A/2 cos A/2 + sin A/2 sin A/2
( From (1)&(2) )
=> cos² A/2 + sin² A/2
=> sin² A/2 + cos² A/2
=> 1
Since, sin² A + cos² A = 1
=> RHS
=> LHS = RHS
Hence, Proved.
Answer :-
sin (B+C)/2 cos A/2+cos (B+C)/2 sin A/2 = 1
Used formulae:-
• sin² A + cos² A = 1
• sin (90°-A) = cos A
• cos (90°-A) = sin A
Used Property:-
• "The sum of the three interior angles in a triangle is equal to 180° ".
