To establish the given identity, begin by squaring both sides. The left side then yields to the half-angle formula for the sine; the right side contains the square of the norm of the difference, which then becomes the dot product of the difference with itself. Each time the norm of A or B appears, remember that these are unit vectors, so the norms are 1.
