I think it would go something like this.

Iirc this also can be done graphically Considering the graph of sinx from 0 to π/2
SirLancelotDuLac
That leads to getting sin((a+b+c)/3) rather than the required sin(a+b+c) ig.

Shouldnt it be -2sin(-(α+β)/2)cos((α+β)/2 + γ) , like -ve inside the sin 2nd term in 2nd line? after applying sinc - sind i mean, cuz if you take it out, then there'll be a +ve sign on the front, right? yea exactly what i got from jensen's inequality
SirLancelotDuLac
Yep, I directly took out the - sign and turned it +ve.

my bad i confused myself after applying cosc-cosd, the argument inside sin is c+d/2 and c-d/2 so shouldnt the arguments be α+γ/2 and β+γ/2 finally? i dont see them divided by 2 in the arguments of sin, maybe i am missing something again lol @SirLancelotDuLac ...
SirLancelotDuLac
Oh right mb, they should be divided by 2.
