Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
ii) So if ABCD is a cyclic quadrilateral taken in order, then A + C = 180° and B + D = 180°
==> A = (180 - C)
==> cos(A) = cos(180 - C) = -cos(C)
==> cos(A) + cos(C) = 0 ------ (1)
Similarly it can be shown that cos(B) + cos(D) = 0 ----------- (2)
Adding (1) & (2): cos(A) + cos(B) + cos(C) + cos(D) = 0 [Proved]
