To prove: The statement of inequality AB+AD>BC from the given figure.

Expert Solution & Answer
Check Mark

Explanation of Solution

Given information:

The given congruency statement is:

  BCDCDB

The given diagram is:

  Geometry, Student Edition, Chapter 5.5, Problem 18PPS

Consider the given statement of inequality as BCDCDB .

Recall the converse of the isosceles triangle theorem as:

  BCBD

From the definition of congruency, we can write that,

  BC=BD

Now, consider the inequality of triangle theorem:

The sum of the lengths of any two sides of a triangle should be greater than the third side.

  AB+AD>BD

Consider the third side of the triangle as BC .

Since, BC=BD

  AB+AD>BC

Hence, the statement is proved.
