If `a^2, b^2,c^2` are in A.P., then prove that `tanA ,tanB ,tanC` are in H.P.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

`a^2,b^2,c^2` are in AP
`2b^2=a^2+c^2`
`b^2-a^2=c^2-b^2`
`sin^2B-sin^2A=sin^2C-sin^2B`
`sin(B+A)sin(B-A)=sin(C+B)(sinC-B)`
`sinCsin(B-A)=sinAsin(C-B)`
`sinC(sinBcosA-cosBsinA)=sinA(sinCcosB-cosCsinB)`
`cotA-cotB=cotB-cotC`
