To prove that if the sides \( a, b, c \) of triangle \( ABC \) are in Harmonic Progression (HP), then \( \sin^2\left(\frac{A}{2}\right), \sin^2\left(\frac{B}{2}\right), \sin^2\left(\frac{C}{2}\right) \) are also in HP, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Understanding Harmonic Progression If the sides \( a, b, c \) are in HP, then their reciprocals \( \frac{1}{a}, \frac{1}{b}, \frac{1}{c} \) are in Arithmetic Progression (AP). This means: \[ 2 \cdot \frac{1}{b} = \frac{1}{a} + \frac{1}{c} \] or equivalently, ...
