Question Number 86540 by jagoll last updated on 29/Mar/20

prove that  cos ((A/2))+cos ((B/2))+cos ((C/2)) =   4 cos (((π+A)/4))cos (((π+B)/4))cos (((π−C)/4))  where A+B+C = π

provethatcos(A2)+cos(B2)+cos(C2)=4cos(π+A4)cos(π+B4)cos(πC4)whereA+B+C=π

RHS  2 { 2cos (((π+A)/4))cos (((π+B)/4))} cos (((π−C)/4))  2 {cos (((2π+A+B)/4))+cos (((A−B)/4))} cos (((π−C)/4))  2 {−sin (((A+B)/4)) + cos (((A−B)/4))}sin (((π+C)/4))  2{cos (((A−B)/4))sin (((π+C)/4))−sin (((A+B)/4))sin (((π+C)/4))}

RHS2{2cos(π+A4)cos(π+B4)}cos(πC4)2{cos(2π+A+B4)+cos(AB4)}cos(πC4)2{sin(A+B4)+cos(AB4)}sin(π+C4)2{cos(AB4)sin(π+C4)sin(A+B4)sin(π+C4)}

A+B+C = π⇒B−C = π−(A+C)  LHS  A = π−(B+C)  (A/2) = (π/2)−(((B+C)/2))  cos ((A/2)) = sin (((B+C)/2))  ⇒cos ((B/2))+cos ((C/2)) = 2cos (((B+C)/4))cos (((B−C)/4))  sin (((B+C)/2)) = 2sin (((B+C)/4))cos (((B+C)/4))  ⇒2cos (((B+C)/4)) {sin (((B+C)/4))+cos (((B−C)/4))}  2 cos (((π−A)/4)) {sin (((π−A)/4))+cos (((π−(A+C))/4))}

A+B+C=πBC=π(A+C)LHSA=π(B+C)A2=π2(B+C2)cos(A2)=sin(B+C2)cos(B2)+cos(C2)=2cos(B+C4)cos(BC4)sin(B+C2)=2sin(B+C4)cos(B+C4)2cos(B+C4){sin(B+C4)+cos(BC4)}2cos(πA4){sin(πA4)+cos(π(A+C)4)}
