If A,B,C and D be the angles of a cyclic quadrilateral, taken in order, prove that


 cos(180o-A) + cos(180o+B) + cos(180o+C) - sin(90o+D) = 0

  -cosA-cosB-cosC-cosD


=-cosA-cosB-cos(180-A)-cos(180-B)


=-cosA-cosB+cosA+cosB


=0


please tell me whether my solution is correct or not?

In a cyclic quadrilateral, A+C=180 and B+D=180


                                         C=180-A               D = 180-B


       cos(180-A)+cos(180-B)+cos(180+C)+sin(90+D)    


  [cos(180-x)=-cosx, cos(180+x)=-cosx, sin(90+x)=-cosx]


       = -cosA-cosB-cosC-cosD


       =-(cosA+cosB+cosC+cosD)


       =-(cosA+cosB+cos(180-A)+cos(180-B))


       = - (cosA+cosB-cosA-cosB)


       = 0
