Solution

The correct option is A

AB + BC + CA > 2AD



In Δ ABD, AB + BD > AD (i) (Sum of two sides of a triangle is greater than the third side)
In Δ ACD, AC + DC > AD (ii) (Sum of two sides of a triangle is greater than the third side)
On adding (i) and (ii)
AB + BD + AC + DC > AD + AD
AB + BC + AC > 2AD
