L.H.S. = cos2A + cos2B – cos2C
= \(\frac{1}{2}\)[1+2cos(A+B) cos(A – B) – (2cos2C – 1)]
= \(\frac{1}{2}\)[1+2cos(A+B).cos(A – B) – 2cos2C +1]
= \(\frac{1}{2}\)[2 + 2(-cosc) cos(A – B) 2cos2C]
= \(\frac{1}{2}\)[2 – 2 cos C[cos (A – B) + cos C]
= \(\frac{1}{2}\)[2 – 2cosC[cos(A – B) – cos(A+B)]]
= 1 – cosC[-2sin A . sin(-B)]
=1 – cosC[2sin A sin B]
= 1 – 2sinA sinB cosC = R.H.S.
