Solution

\[LHS = \sin3x + \sin2x - \text{ sin } x\]

\[ = \sin3x + 2\sin\left( \frac{2x - x}{2} \right)\cos\left( \frac{2x + x}{2} \right) \left[ \because \text{ sin } A - \text{ sin } B = 2\sin\left( \frac{A - B}{2} \right)\cos\left( \frac{A + B}{2} \right) \right]\]

\[ = \sin3x + 2\sin\left( \frac{x}{2} \right)\cos\left( \frac{3x}{2} \right)\]

\[ = 2\sin\left( \frac{3x}{2} \right)\cos\left( \frac{3x}{2} \right) + 2\sin\left( \frac{3x}{2} \right)\cos\frac{x}{2} \left[ \because \sin2A = 2\text{ sin } A\text{ cos } A \right]\]

\[ = 2\cos\left( \frac{3x}{2} \right)\left[ \sin\left( \frac{3x}{2} \right)\cos\left( \frac{x}{2} \right) \right]\]

\[ = 2\cos\left( \frac{3x}{2} \right)\left[ 2\sin\left( \frac{\frac{3x}{2} + \frac{x}{2}}{2} \right)\cos\left( \frac{\frac{3x}{2} - \frac{x}{2}}{2} \right) \right] \left[ \because \text{ sin } A + \text{ sin } B = 2\sin\left( \frac{A + B}{2} \right)\cos\left( \frac{A - B}{2} \right) \right]\]

\[ = 2\cos\left( \frac{3x}{2} \right)\left[ 2\sin\left( x \right)\cos\left( \frac{x}{2} \right) \right]\]

\[ = 4\sin\left( x \right)\cos\left( \frac{x}{2} \right)\cos\left( \frac{3x}{2} \right) = RHS\]

\[\text{ Hence proved } . \]
