Solution
The correct option is B False A+B+C=π⇒A2+B2+C2=π2 Now cos2A2+cos2B2+cos2C2 =cosA−12+cosB−12+cosC−12 =12(cosA+cosB+cosC−3) =12(2cos(A+B2)cos(A−B2)+cos(π−(A+B)−3)) =12(2cos(A+B2)cos(A−B2)−cos(A+B)−3) =12(2cos(A+B2)cos(A−B2)−2cos2(A+B2)−2) =12(2cos(A+B2)(cos(A−B2)−cos(A+B2))−2) =cos(π2−C2)(2sinA2sinB2)−1 =2sinA2sinB2sinC2−1
