Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

To prove that \( \sin^2\left(\frac{\pi}{8} + \frac{A}{2}\right) - \sin^2\left(\frac{\pi}{8} - \frac{A}{2}\right) = \frac{1}{\sqrt{2}} \sin A \), we can use the identity for the difference of squares. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Use the Difference of Squares Identity:** We know that: \[ \sin^2 x - \sin^2 y = (\sin x + \sin y)(\sin x - \sin y) ...
