Let the required expression be P . Use b = 2 R sin B , c = 2 R sin C and then sin B − sin C = 2 sin ( 2 B − C ) sin ( 2 A ) cos ( 2 B + C )
P = sin ( 2 B − C ) 4 R ( sin ( 2 B − C ) sin ( 2 A ) )
sin ( 2 A ) = 2 1 − cos A = 2 1 − 1 − sin 2 A = 2 1 − 1 − 4 R 2 a 2
Thus,
P = 4 R ⎝ ⎜ ⎜ ⎜ ⎜ ⎜ ⎛ 2 1 − 1 − 4 R 2 a 2 ⎠ ⎟ ⎟ ⎟ ⎟ ⎟ ⎞
Substituting a = 1 0 , R = 1 3 , we get:
P = 2 2 6 = 1 0 4
∴ n = 1 0 4
