Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
AB is a 6 m high pole and CD is a ladder inclined at an angle of 60° to the horizontal
and reaches up to a point D of pole. If AD = 2.54 m, find the length of the ladder. (use
3
= 1.73)

Answer:
suppose the longer of the two sides PQ and PR is PQ
PS must be shorter than or equal to PQ. (It's only equal if S and Q are the same point.)
It is a rule that the sum of any two sides of a triangle must be greater than the third side. So we also know that PR + QR > PQ
Since PR + QR > PQ
We know PQ + PR + QR > 2PQ
(just added PQ to both sides)
And since PQ >= PS,
We know 2PQ >= 2PS
(multipled both sides by 2)
From those two (PQ + PR + QR > 2PQ, 2PQ >= 2PS), we know:
PQ + PR + QR > 2PS
