Solution
Given: $a=5, b=12, c=13$
Thus, $\mathrm{S}=\frac{a+b+c}{2}=15$
$\Delta=\sqrt{s(\mathrm{~s}-\mathrm{a})(\mathrm{s}-\mathrm{b})(\mathrm{s}-\mathrm{c})}=\sqrt{15 \times 10 \times 3 \times 2}=30$
Now, $b^2 \sin 2 C+c^2 \sin 2 B$
$\begin{aligned} & =b^2 \cdot 2 \sin C \cos C+c^2 \cdot 2 \sin B \cos B \\ & =2 b^2 \cdot \frac{2 \Delta}{a b} \cdot \frac{a^2+b^2-c^2}{2 a b}+2 c^2 \cdot \frac{2 \Delta}{a c} \cdot \frac{a^2+c^2-b^2}{2 a c} \\ & =\frac{2 \Delta}{a^2}\left(\mathrm{a}^2+b^2-c^2\right)+\frac{2 \Delta}{a^2}\left(\mathrm{a}^2+c^2-b^2\right) \\ & =\frac{2 \Delta}{a^2}\left(2 a^2\right)=4 \Delta=4 \times 30=120\end{aligned}$
