उत्तर

Since a, b, c, d are in G.P.

Again A.M. > G.M. for the first three terms

`(a + c)/2 > b`   .....`("Since"  sqrt(ac) = b)`

⇒ a + c > 2b   ....(3)

Similarly, for the last three terms

`(b + d)/2 > c`  .....`("Since"  sqrt(bd) = c)`

⇒ b + d > 2c  ....(4)

Adding (3) and (4), we get

(a + c) + (b + d) > 2b + 2c

a + d > b + c
