$$2s=a+b+c$$ We know, $$\tan (A/2) = \sqrt{\frac{(s-b)(s-c)}{s(s-a)}}$$ Similarly, $$\tan (B/2) = \sqrt{\frac{(s-a)(s-c)}{s(s-b)}}$$ Now, $$(a+b+c)(\tan (A/2)+\tan (B/2)=(a+b+c)(\sqrt{\frac{(s-b)(s-c)}{s(s-a)}}+\sqrt{\frac{(s-a)(s-c)}{s(s-b)}})$$ $$=2s\sqrt{\frac{s-c}{s}}(\sqrt{\frac{s-b}{s-a}}+\sqrt{\frac{s-a}{s-b}})$$ $$=2s\sqrt{\frac{s-c}{s}}(\frac{s-b+s-a}{\sqrt{(s-b)(s-a}})$$ $$=2c\sqrt{\frac{s(s-c)}{(s-a)(s-b)}}$$ $$=2c\tan (C/2)$$2s=a+b+c" id="MathJax-Element-741-Frame" role="presentation" style="box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; outline: 0px; font-size: 14px; vertical-align: middle; background-image: initial; background-position: initial; background-size: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-attachment: initial; background-origin: initial; background-clip: initial; font-family: proxima_nova_rgregular, "helvetica neue", helvetica, arial, sans-serif; display: inline; line-height: normal; word-wrap: normal; white-space: nowrap; float: none; direction: ltr; max-width: none; max-height: none; min-width: 0px; min-height: 0px; position: relative;" tabindex="0">$$2s=a+b+c$$ We know, $$\tan (A/2) = \sqrt{\frac{(s-b)(s-c)}{s(s-a)}}$$ Similarly, $$\tan (B/2) = \sqrt{\frac{(s-a)(s-c)}{s(s-b)}}$$ Now, $$Q=(a+b+c)(\sqrt{\frac{(s-b)(s-c)}{s(s-a)}}+\sqrt{\frac{(s-a)(s-c)}{s(s-b)}})$$ $$=2s\sqrt{\frac{s-c}{s}}(\sqrt{\frac{s-b}{s-a}}+\sqrt{\frac{s-a}{s-b}})$$ $$=2s\sqrt{\frac{s-c}{s}}(\frac{s-b+s-a}{\sqrt{(s-b)(s-a}})$$ $$=2c\sqrt{\frac{s(s-c)}{(s-a)(s-b)}}$$ $$=2c\tan (C/2)$$$$2s=a+b+c$$ We know, $$\tan (A/2) = \sqrt{\frac{(s-b)(s-c)}{s(s-a)}}$$ Similarly, $$\tan (B/2) = \sqrt{\frac{(s-a)(s-c)}{s(s-b)}}$$ Now, $$Q=(a+b+c)(\sqrt{\frac{(s-b)(s-c)}{s(s-a)}}+\sqrt{\frac{(s-a)(s-c)}{s(s-b)}})$$ $$=2s\sqrt{\frac{s-c}{s}}(\sqrt{\frac{s-b}{s-a}}+\sqrt{\frac{s-a}{s-b}})$$ $$=2s\sqrt{\frac{s-c}{s}}(\frac{s-b+s-a}{\sqrt{(s-b)(s-a}})$$ $$=2c\sqrt{\frac{s(s-c)}{(s-a)(s-b)}}$$ $$=2c\tan (C/2)$$
