Solution:
Given sin2A+sin2B=sin(A+B).
We know that sin2A=1−cos2A and sin2B=1−cos2B, but let's try to use the sum-to-product identities.
Recall that:
sin2A+sin2B=21−cos2A+21−cos2B=1−2cos2A+cos2B
So the equation becomes:
1−2cos2A+cos2B=sin(A+B)
Bring sin(A+B) to the left:
1−sin(A+B)=2cos2A+cos2B
Multiply both sides by 2:
2−2sin(A+B)=cos2A+cos2B
But cos2A+cos2B=2cos22A+2Bcos22A−2B=2cos(A+B)cos(A−B).
So:
2−2sin(A+B)=2cos(A+B)cos(A−B)
Divide both sides by 2:
1−sin(A+B)=cos(A+B)cos(A−B)
Bring all terms to one side:
1−sin(A+B)−cos(A+B)cos(A−B)=0
Let S=A+B and D=A−B.
So:
1−sinS−cosScosD=0
But cosScosD=21[cos(S−D)+cos(S+D)]=21[cos(A+B−(A−B))+cos(A+B+(A−B))]=21[cos(2B)+cos(2A)]
But this brings us back to the earlier form. Let's try another approach.
Let us suppose A+B=x.
Then sin2A+sin2B=sinx.
But sin2A+sin2B=1−2cos2A+cos2B as above.
So:
1−2cos2A+cos2B=sinx
So:
cos2A+cos2B=2(1−sinx)
But 2A+2B=2x, so cos2A+cos2B=2cosxcos(A−B).
Therefore:
2cosxcos(A−B)=2(1−sinx)
Divide both sides by 2:
cosxcos(A−B)=1−sinx
But A and B are acute, so 0<A<2π, 0<B<2π, so 0<x<π.
Suppose x=2π.
Then sinx=1, cosx=0.
So left side: 0⋅cos(A−B)=0, right side: 1−1=0.
So equality holds.
Suppose x<2π.
Then sinx<1, cosx>0.
So 1−sinx>0, cosx>0, so cos(A−B)=cosx1−sinx.
But ∣A−B∣<x<2π, so cos(A−B)>0.
But cos(A−B)≤1, so cosx1−sinx≤1.
So 1−sinx≤cosx.
But 1−sinx−cosx≤0.
But for 0<x<2π, 1−sinx−cosx>0 for small x, so possible only at x=2π.
Similarly, for x>2π, cosx<0, 1−sinx<0, but cos(A−B)>0, so left side negative, right side negative, but cos(A−B)=cosx1−sinx, but cos(A−B)>0, so cosx1−sinx>0, but both negative, so possible only if x=2π.
Therefore, the only solution is A+B=2π.
