In a triangle ABC , with usual notations, \(2 \mathrm{ac} \sin \left(\frac{\mathrm{A}-\mathrm{B}+\mathrm{C}}{2}\right)\) is equal to

  1. A \(a^2+b^2-c^2\)
  2. B \(b^2-a^2+c^2\)
  3. C \(\mathrm{c}^2+\mathrm{a}^2-\mathrm{b}^2\)
  4. D \(\mathrm{a}^2-\mathrm{b}^2-\mathrm{c}^2\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) \(\mathrm{c}^2+\mathrm{a}^2-\mathrm{b}^2\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(2 \mathrm{ac} \sin \frac{\mathrm{A}-\mathrm{B}+\mathrm{C}}{2} =2 \mathrm{ac} \sin \frac{\pi-2 \mathrm{~B}}{2} \)
\( =2 \mathrm{ac} \cos \mathrm{B} \)
\( =2 \mathrm{ac} \frac{\mathrm{c}^2+\mathrm{a}^2-\mathrm{b}^2}{2 \mathrm{ca}} \)
\( =\mathrm{c}^2+\mathrm{a}^2-\mathrm{b}^2\)....[By cosine rule]
