उत्तर
In ΔPQR,
PQ + PR > QR (∵ Sum of two sides of a triangle is always greater than third aside.)
In ΔPQS,
PQ + QS > PS (∵ Sum of two sides of a triangle is always greater than third aside.) .....(i)
In ΔPRS,
PR + SR > PS (∵ Sum of two sides of a triangle is always greater than third aside.) .....(ii)
Adding (i) and (ii),
PQ + QS + PR + SR > 2PS
PQ + (QS + SR) + PR > 2PS
PQ + QR + PR > 2PS
Since PQ + PR > QR
⇒ PQ + QR > 2PS.
