Question -

b sin B – c sin C = a sin (B – C)



Answer -

By using the sine rule we know,

So, c = k sin C

Similarly, a = k sin A

And b = k sin B

We know,

Now let us consider LHS:

b sin B – c sin C

Substituting the values of b and c in the aboveequation, we get

k sin B sin B – k sin C sin C = k (sin2 B– sin2 C) ……….(i)

We know,

Sin2 B – sin2 C = sin(B + C) sin (B – C),

Substituting the above values in equation (i), we get

k (sin2 B – sin2 C) =k (sin (B + C) sin (B – C)) [since, π = A + B + C  B + C = π –A]

The above equation becomes,

= k (sin (π –A) sin (B – C)) [since, sin (π – θ) = sinθ]

= k (sin (A) sin (B – C))

From sine rule, a = k sin A, so the above equationbecomes,

= a sin (B – C)

= RHS

Hence proved.
