in the adjacent figure sides ab and ac of triangle ABC are extended to the points p and q also angle pbc is less than angle q c b show that AC is greater than a b

Proof: It is given that angle PBC is less than angle QCB.
Now angle PBC +angle ABC = 180 (linear pair)
Since angle PBC is less therefore the remaining part will be greater such that angle abc is greater.
Similarly,
angle QCB + angle ACB = 180
Angle QCB is greater therefore the remaining part will be smaller such that angle ACB is less
Therefore side AC is greater than side AB ( side opposite to greater angle is greater)
and therefore it is proved
