Solution

The correct option is A

4sinAsinBsinC


Finding the value of sin2A+sin2B+sin2C in a triangle ABC.

In triangle ABC, A+B+C=180° ( sum of all the interior angles in any triangle is 180°)

So, 2A+2B+2C=360°

Now, solving for sin2A+sin2B+sin2C:

sin2A+sin2B+sin2C=2sin2A+2B2cos2A-2B2+sin2C=2sinA+BcosA-B+sin2C=2sinA+BcosA-B+sin360°-2(A+B)=2sinA+BcosA-B-sin2A+B=2sinA+BcosA-B-2sinA+BcosA+B=2sinA+B(cosA-B-cosA+B)=2sinA+B(2sinAsinB)=4sin180°-C2sinAsinB=4sinCsinAsinBsin2A+sin2B+sin2C=4sinAsinBsinC

Hence, Option (C) is correct.
