Solution

The correct option is B False
sin2A+sin2B+sin2C

=(sin2A+sin2B)+sin2C

=2sin(2A+2B2)cos(2A2B2)+2sinCcosC

=2sin(A+B)cos(AB)+2sinCcosC

=2sin(πC)cos(AB)+2sinCcosC since

A+B+C=π

=2sinCcos(AB)+2sinCcos(π(A+B)) since A+B+C=π

=2sinC[cos(AB)cos(A+B)]

=2sinC[2sin(AB+A+B2)sin(ABAB2)]

=4sinC[sinAsin(B)]

=4sinAsinBsinC

Hence the given statement is false.
