Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Consider any triangle with the sides as a,b,c and A,B,C as the angles. the sine Formula is a/SinA = b/SinB = c/SinC
And sum of the angles of a triangle = 180°
it means A + B + C = 180,
A = 180 - (B + C),
B + C = 180 - A
now, we have to prove,
(b+c) Cos (B+C/2) = a Cos(B-C/2)
we can also write this as
=> b+c/a = Cos(B-C/2) / Cos(B+C/2)
now, From the sine Formula,
a/SinA = b/SinB = c/SinC = k
a = kSinA, b = kSinB, c = kSinC
So, L.H.S,
b+c/a = kSinB + kSinC/ kSinA
Remember Sinx + Siny = 2Sin(x+y/2)Cos(x-y/2) and Sin2A = 2SinACosA.
= 2kSin(B+C/2)Cos(B-C/2)/2kSinA/2CosA/2
= SIn((180-A)/2)Cos(B-C/2)/Sin((180 - (B+C))/2)CosA/2
= Sin(90-A/2)Cos(B-C/2) / Sin(90 - B+C/2)CosA/2
Remember Sin (90 - θ) = Cosθ
= Cos(A/2)Cos(B-C/2)/ Cos(B+C/2).CosA/2
= Cos(B-C/2)/Cos(B+C/2)
= R.H.S.
Hence proved.
