if cos (β−γ)+cos( γ−α)+cos (α−β)=−(3/2)  so proof it,  Σcos α=0,Σsin α=0

$${if}\:\mathrm{cos}\:\left(\beta−\gamma\right)+\mathrm{cos}\left(\:\gamma−\alpha\right)+\mathrm{cos}\:\left(\alpha−\beta\right)=−\frac{\mathrm{3}}{\mathrm{2}} \\ $$$${so}\:{proof}\:{it}, \\ $$$$\Sigma\mathrm{cos}\:\alpha=\mathrm{0},\Sigma\mathrm{sin}\:\alpha=\mathrm{0} \\ $$

Given,  cos (β−γ)+cos( γ−α)+cos (α−β)=−(3/2)  ⇒2cos (β−γ)+2cos( γ−α)+2cos (α−β)=−3  ⇒Σ(2cosβcosγ+2sinβsinγ) +3=0  ⇒Σ(2cosβcosγ+2sinβsinγ) +Σ(sin^2 α+cos^2 α)=0  ⇒{Σcos^2 α+Σ2cosβcosγ}+{Σsin^2 α+Σ2sinβsinγ}=0  ⇒(Σcos α)^2 +(Σsin α)^2 =0  ⇒Σcos α=0,Σsin α=0

$${Given}, \\ $$$$\mathrm{cos}\:\left(\beta−\gamma\right)+\mathrm{cos}\left(\:\gamma−\alpha\right)+\mathrm{cos}\:\left(\alpha−\beta\right)=−\frac{\mathrm{3}}{\mathrm{2}} \\ $$$$\Rightarrow\mathrm{2cos}\:\left(\beta−\gamma\right)+\mathrm{2cos}\left(\:\gamma−\alpha\right)+\mathrm{2cos}\:\left(\alpha−\beta\right)=−\mathrm{3} \\ $$$$\Rightarrow\Sigma\left(\mathrm{2}{cos}\beta{cos}\gamma+\mathrm{2}{sin}\beta{sin}\gamma\right)\:+\mathrm{3}=\mathrm{0} \\ $$$$\Rightarrow\Sigma\left(\mathrm{2}{cos}\beta{cos}\gamma+\mathrm{2}{sin}\beta{sin}\gamma\right)\:+\Sigma\left({sin}^{\mathrm{2}} \alpha+{cos}^{\mathrm{2}} \alpha\right)=\mathrm{0} \\ $$$$\Rightarrow\left\{\Sigma{cos}^{\mathrm{2}} \alpha+\Sigma\mathrm{2}{cos}\beta{cos}\gamma\right\}+\left\{\Sigma{sin}^{\mathrm{2}} \alpha+\Sigma\mathrm{2}{sin}\beta{sin}\gamma\right\}=\mathrm{0} \\ $$$$\Rightarrow\left(\Sigma\mathrm{cos}\:\alpha\right)^{\mathrm{2}} +\left(\Sigma\mathrm{sin}\:\alpha\right)^{\mathrm{2}} =\mathrm{0} \\ $$$$\Rightarrow\Sigma\mathrm{cos}\:\alpha=\mathrm{0},\Sigma\mathrm{sin}\:\alpha=\mathrm{0} \\ $$
