By sine rule,

AC / sin B = AB / sin C = BC / sin A

So (BC / sin A)² = (AC / sin B)(AB / sin C)

BC² / sin² A = (AC)(AB) / (sin B sin C)

BC² = (AC)(AB) sin² A / (sin B sin C)

(You can skip this step if you are able to see that the numerator (AC)(AB) and denominator sin²A can be swapped immediately instead of performing any cross multiplication)

BC² / (AC)(AB) = sin² A / (sin B sin C)

BC² / (AC)(AB) = sin² (180° - A) / (sin B sin C)

(Recall sin A = sin (180° - A) )

BC² / (AC)(AB) = sin² (B + C) / (sin B sin C)
(Since A + B + C = 180°)
