    In \[\Delta ABC,{{(a-b)}^{2}}{{\cos }^{2}}\frac{C}{2}+{{(a+b)}^{2}}{{\sin }^{2}}\frac{C}{2}=\]

    A) \[{{a}^{2}}\]

    B) \[{{b}^{2}}\]

    C) \[{{c}^{2}}\]

    D) None of these

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

    \[({{a}^{2}}+{{b}^{2}}-2ab){{\cos }^{2}}\frac{C}{2}+({{a}^{2}}+{{b}^{2}}+2ab){{\sin }^{2}}\frac{C}{2}\] \[={{a}^{2}}+{{b}^{2}}+2ab\left( {{\sin }^{2}}\frac{C}{2}-{{\cos }^{2}}\frac{C}{2} \right)\] \[={{a}^{2}}+{{b}^{2}}-2ab\cos C={{a}^{2}}+{{b}^{2}}-({{a}^{2}}+{{b}^{2}}-{{c}^{2}})={{c}^{2}}\].
