Question
In the given figure, prove that:
CD + DA + AB + BC > 2AC
Advertisements
Solution
We have to prove that CD + DA + AB + BC > 2AC
In ΔABC we have
AB + BC > AC (As sum of two sides of triangle is greater than third one) ........(1)
In ΔACDwe have
AD + CD > AC (As sum of two sides of triangle is greater than third one) .........(2)
Hence
Adding (1) & (2) we get AB + BC + AC + CD > 2AC Proved.
