If A + B + C = 180°, Prove that, sin2A + sin2B + sin2C = 2 + 2cosA cosB cosC.
Solution.
Let S = sin2A + sin2B + sin2C
so that 2S = 2sin2A + 1 – cos2B +1 – cos2C
= 2 sin2A + 2 – 2cos(B + C) cos(B – C)
= 2 – 2 cos2A + 2 – 2cos(B + C) cos(B – C)
∴ S = 2 + cosA [cos(B – C) + cos(B+ C)]
since cosA = – cos(B+C)
