Question Number 57873 by 786786AM last updated on 13/Apr/19

If α + β+ γ =180°, show that cos (α/2) + cos (β/2)+ cos (γ/2) = 4 cos ((β + γ)/4)  cos ((γ + α)/4) cos ((α + β)/4).

$$\mathrm{If}\:\alpha\:+\:\beta+\:\gamma\:=\mathrm{180}°,\:\mathrm{show}\:\mathrm{that}\:\mathrm{cos}\:\frac{\alpha}{\mathrm{2}}\:+\:\mathrm{cos}\:\frac{\beta}{\mathrm{2}}+\:\mathrm{cos}\:\frac{\gamma}{\mathrm{2}}\:=\:\mathrm{4}\:\mathrm{cos}\:\frac{\beta\:+\:\gamma}{\mathrm{4}}\:\:\mathrm{cos}\:\frac{\gamma\:+\:\alpha}{\mathrm{4}}\:\mathrm{cos}\:\frac{\alpha\:+\:\beta}{\mathrm{4}}. \\ $$
