The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we start with the given relationship in triangle \( \Delta ABC \): \[ \frac{\sin A}{\sin C} = \frac{\sin(A - B)}{\sin(B - C) \] ### Step 1: Rewrite the Sine Functions Using the sine addition and subtraction formulas, we can express \( \sin A \) and \( \sin C \) in terms of the other angles: - \( \sin A = \sin(\pi - (B + C)) = \sin(B + C) \) - \( \sin C = \sin(A + B) \) ### Step 2: Substitute into the Equation Substituting these into the original equation gives: \[ \frac{\sin(B + C)}{\sin(A + B)} = \frac{\sin(A - B)}{\sin(B - C)} \] ### Step 3: Cross-Multiply Cross-multiplying the equation results in: \[ \sin(B + C) \cdot \sin(B - C) = \sin(A + B) \cdot \sin(A - B) \] ### Step 4: Use the Sine Difference Identity Using the identity \( \sin x \cdot \sin y = \frac{1}{2} [\cos(x - y) - \cos(x + y)] \), we can express both sides: - Left Side: \[ \sin(B + C) \cdot \sin(B - C) = \frac{1}{2} [\cos(2B) - \cos(2C)] \] - Right Side: \[ \sin(A + B) \cdot \sin(A - B) = \frac{1}{2} [\cos(2A) - \cos(2B)] \] ### Step 5: Set the Equations Equal Setting the two sides equal gives: \[ \frac{1}{2} [\cos(2B) - \cos(2C)] = \frac{1}{2} [\cos(2A) - \cos(2B)] \] ### Step 6: Simplify Multiplying through by 2 and rearranging leads to: \[ \cos(2B) + \cos(2B) = \cos(2A) + \cos(2C) \] This simplifies to: \[ 2\cos(2B) = \cos(2A) + \cos(2C) \] ### Step 7: Apply the Sine Rule Using the sine rule \( \frac{a}{\sin A} = \frac{b}{\sin B} = \frac{c}{\sin C} = k \), we can express \( a, b, c \) in terms of \( k \): \[ a = k \sin A, \quad b = k \sin B, \quad c = k \sin C \] ### Step 8: Square the Sides Squaring these gives: \[ a^2 = k^2 \sin^2 A, \quad b^2 = k^2 \sin^2 B, \quad c^2 = k^2 \sin^2 C \] ### Step 9: Establish the Relationship From the earlier derived relationship, we can conclude that: \[ a^2 + c^2 = 2b^2 \] This indicates that \( a^2, b^2, c^2 \) are in Arithmetic Progression (AP). ### Final Result Thus, the final result is: \[ a^2, b^2, c^2 \text{ are in AP.} \] ---
