For acosA +(-) bsinA +(-) c
a= rcosA & b= rsinA ( a not = A^o)
Then a^2+b^2 = r^2-cos^2-A + r^2-sin^2-A = r^2 that= r is sqrt(a^2+b^2)..................................... .......(I could not understand this method. could you explain me about it)

I may not understand your question.

However, to start, r is the hypotenuse of a triangle formed by the axes and an angle.

is true because cosine is the adjacent side (a) over the hypotenuse (r), so this is just solving for a. This is similar with solving for b as well, but it is the side opposite the angle, so we use sine instead of cosine.

Pythagorean theorem says that for a right triangle , so when we substitute the above this gives us .

If you elaborate more on your question, that would help me.

Is there any use of circle with coordinates in the solution and my problem of not understanding is at starting of it after reading the entire proof.

I'm sorry, I don't understand what you are asking.

'Then a^2+b^2 = r^2cos^2-A + r^2sin^2-A = r^2", a pythagoren theorem?

like this?

where x = a and y = b?

"Extreme values of acosA +(-) bcosA +(-) c(anot=A^o) is
[c - sqrt(a^2+b^2) , c + sqrt(a^2+b^2)]" (I think now it is better) (I edited the qestion could you again read it)

same, i can't understand . . . . my problem i think is the same as yours, we both don't learn latexing.
