Step-by-step explanation:
Given: In △ABC,AD is the median drawn from A to BC
To Prove that AB+AC>AD
Construction:Produce AD to E so that DE=AD, join BE
Proof:In △ADC and △EDB we have
AD=DE(constant)
DC=BD as D is the midpoint
∠ADC=∠EDB (vertically opposite angles)
∴ In △ABE, △ADC≅△EDB by S.A.S
This gives BE=AC
AB+BE>AE
AB+AC>2AD ∵AD=DE and BE=AC
Hence the sum of any two sides of a triangle is greater than twice the median with respect to the third side.
