In any triangle ABC, prove that:

(i) a = b cos C + c cos B (ii) b = c cos A + a cos C (iii) c = a cos B + b cos A


Let angle C be acute in figure (i), obtuse in figure (ii) and right angle in figure

(on produced if necessary)

(iii) Draw AD ⊥ BC in all the triangles.

           

In figure (i),          space space straight a equals BC equals BD plus DC equals AB BD over AB plus AC DC over AC equals AB space cosB space plus space AC space cosC

                                 = c cos B + b cos C                                                             ...(i)

In figure (ii),              straight a equals BC equals BD minus CD equals AB BD over AB minus AC. CD over AC equals AB space cosB space minus space AC space cos left parenthesis straight pi minus straight C right parenthesis
                                  = c cos B + b cos C                                                             ...(ii)

In figure (iii),               straight a equals BC equals BD plus 0 space equals space AB BD over AB plus ACcos 90 degree space equals space AB space cosB space plus space AC space cos straight pi over 2

                                     = c cos B + b cos C                                                         ...(iii)

From (i), (ii) and (iii), we have
                                     a = b cos C + c cos B
Simillarly, we can prove
                             b = c cos A + a cos C
                             c = a cos B + b cos A
