In a triangle `A B C ,` if `A-B=120^0a n dsin(A/2)sin(B/2)sin(C/2)=1/(32),` then the value of `8cosC` is_______

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

`sin(A/2)sin(B/2)sin(C/2) = 1/32`
`=>(2sin(A/2)sin(B/2))sin(C/2) = 2/32`
`=>[cos((A-B)/2) - cos((A+B)/2)]sin(C/2) = 1/16`
`=>[cos(120^@/2) - cos((A+B)/2)]sin(C/2) = 1/16`
`=>[1/2 - cos((pi-C)/2)]sin(C/2) = 1/16`
`=>[1/2 - sin(C/2)]sin(C/2) = 1/16`
`=>1/2sin(C/2) - sin^2(C/2) = 1/16`
`=>sin^2(C/2) - 1/2sin(C/2) +(1/4)^2 = 0`
