`ABCD` is a quadrilateral. Is `AB+BC+CD+DA > AC+BD ?`

Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

To determine whether \( AB + BC + CD + DA > AC + BD \) for the quadrilateral \( ABCD \), we can use the triangle inequality theorem. Here’s a step-by-step solution: ### Step 1: Identify the triangles We can break down the quadrilateral \( ABCD \) into two triangles: \( \triangle ABC \) and \( \triangle ACD \). ### Step 2: Apply the triangle inequality to triangle \( ABC \) According to the triangle inequality theorem, the sum of the lengths of any two sides of a triangle must be greater than the length of the third side. For triangle \( ABC \): \[ ...
