which one greater in triangles sum of medians or perimeter
Answers
Answer:
We know that the sum of any two sides of a triangle is greater than twice the median drawn to the third side.
∴ (AB+BC+AC)>(AD+BE+CF).
Hence, the perimeter of a triangle is greater than the sum of its three medians.
In the triangle ABC, D,E and F are the midpoints of sides BC,CA and AB respectively.
We know that the sum of two sides of a triangle is greater than twice the median bisecting the third side,
Hence in triangle ABD, AD is a median
⇒AB+AC>2(AD)
Similarly, we get
⇒BC+AC>2(CF)
⇒BC+AB>2(BE)
On adding the above inequations, we get
(AB+AC)+(BC+AC)+(BC+AB)>2AD+2CF+2BE
2(AB+BC+AC)>2(AD+BE+CF)
∴AB+BC+AC>AD+BE+CF
Then perimeter of a triangle is greater than sum of its three medians
