Question
Prove that:
sin (A – B) sin C + sin (B – C) sin A + sin(C – A) sin B = 0
Solution
Consider sin (A – B) sin C
= (sin A cos B – cos A sin B) sin C
= sin A cos B sin C – cos A sin B sin C …….. (1)
Similarly sin(B – C) sin A = sin B cos C sin A – cos B sin C sin A …….. (2)
[Replace A by B, B by C, C by A in (1)]
and sin(C – A) sin B [Replace A by B, B by C, C by A in (2)]
= sin C cos A sin B – cos C sin A sin B …….. (3)
Adding (1), (2) and (3) we get
sin (A – B) sin C + sin (B – C) sin A + sin(C – A) sin B = 0
