An essential tool for mathletes!!Kudos.

Maybe we should consider three cases
1) theta is acute angle
2) theta is right angle
3) theta is obtuse angle
In this video only case 1) is proven

Yes!!Well done. How about an obtuse triangle? Does the formula hold?

In Greece, in the textbook of the secondary school there is the following simple proof.
I have taught it over 1000 times ! 😊
Let triangle ABC inscribed in a circle of radius R.
Draw the height *AE=h* of the triangle and the diameter *AD=2R*
Obviously orthogonal triangles ABE and ADC are similar cause <ABE=<ADC (inscribed angles meeting the same arc AC)
So AB/AD=AE/AC => c/2R=h/b => *h=(b⋅c)/2R* (1)
Area of triangle ABC = 1/2⋅ BC⋅AE=1/2 a⋅h=1/2⋅(a⋅b⋅c)/2R=abc/4R cause (1)
So *ο.ε.δ* (όπερ έδει δείξαι in Greek) or *Q.E.D* ( Quod Erat Demonstrandum in Latin) means :
*“I proved what you asked me to do”*
and is found at the end of some simple, impressive and at the same time visually appealing proofs. In one sense, it is synonymous with truth and beauty in Mathematics.

By considering area formula of two adjacent sides and their angle with double angle at

Why such long solution.
Area =bxcsinQ/2
Sin Q=a/2R
So area=1/2bxcxa/2R
A=abc\4R

I knew a different proof, with similarity between right triangles ABH (with AH height of ABC) and ACE ( with AE diameter as in the previous post)
AB : AH = AE : AC
c : AH = 2r : b
knowing that AH = 2*area/a (area = A)
(2*A/a)*2r = bc and then
r = a*b*c/4*A

This is a very nice simple proof ; but, we must not forget that it also proves the law of sines because he could have chose any of the three sides . Thus --- ( I am using A as the angle at A, B as the angle at B, and C as the angle at C because my keyboard does not have greek letters .)
