उत्तर
Given that O is any point in the interior of ABC
We have to prove
(i) AB + AC > OB + OC
(ii) AB + BC + CA > OA + QB + OC
(iii) OA + OB + OC >`1/2`(AB + BC + CA)
We know that, in a triangle the sum of any two sides is greater than the third side So, we have
In ΔABC
AB+BC>AC
BC+AC>AB
AC+AB>BC
In ΔOBC
OB+OC>BC ...........(1)
In ΔOAC
OA+OC>AC ...........(2)
In ΔOAB
OA+OB>AB ............(3)
Now, extend (or) produce BO to meet AC in D.
Now, in ΔABD,we have
AB+AD+BD
⇒ AB+AD>BO+OD .............(4) [∵ BD=BO+OD]
Similarly in , ΔODC we have
OD+DC>OC ...............(5)
(1) Adding (4) and (5), we get
AB+AD+OD+DC>BO+OD+OC
⇒AB+(AD+DC)>OB+OC
⇒ AB+AC>OB+OC ...............(6)
Similarly, we have
BC+BA>OA+OC ...............(7)
and CA+CB>OA+OB ..............(8)
(2) Adding equation (6), (7) and (8), we get
AB+AC+BC+BA+CA+CB>OB+OC+OA+OC+OA+OB
⇒2AB+2BC+CA>2OA+2OB+2OC
⇒2(AB+BC+CA>OA+OB+OC)
⇒AB+BC+CA>OA+OB+OC
(3) Adding equations (1), (2) and (3)
OB+OC+OA+OC+OA+OB+>BC+AC+AB
⇒2OA+2OB+2OC>AB+BC+CA
We get⇒ 2(OA+OB+OC)>AB+BC+CA
∴ (OA+OB+OC)>`1/2`(AB+BC+CA)

ABC is an isosceles triangle with AB = AC and D is a point on BC such that AD ⊥ BC (Figure). To prove that ∠BAD = ∠CAD, a student proceeded as follows:
In ∆ABD and ∆ACD,
AB = AC (Given)
∠B = ∠C (Because AB = AC)
and ∠ADB = ∠ADC
Therefore, ∆ABD ≅ ∆ACD (AAS)
So, ∠BAD = ∠CAD (CPCT)
What is the defect in the above arguments?
[Hint: Recall how ∠B = ∠C is proved when AB = AC].
