Question

Q7. For any quadrilateral ABCD show that
AB + BC + CD + DA > AC + BD​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

ABCD is a quadrilateral and AC, and BD are the diagonals.

Sum of the two sides of a triangle is greater than the third side.

So, considering the triangle ABC, BCD, CAD and BAD, we get

AB + BC > AC

CD + AD > AC

AB + AD > BD

BC + CD > BD

Adding all the above equations,

2(AB + BC + CA + AD) > 2(AC + BD)

⇒ 2(AB + BC + CA + AD) > 2(AC + BD)

⇒ (AB + BC + CA + AD) > (AC + BD)

HENCE, PROVED

mark me as branliest

Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Therefore Hence, proved AB plus BC plus CD plus DA is greater than AC plus BC
