Question

P is any point inside the triangle ABC prove that BPC>BAC

Open in App
Solution

Consider the given ΔABC

Construct:-draw a line AD through point P.

We know that,

Exteriorangle=sumofoppositeinteriorangle

InΔADC, DPC is exterior angle then,

DPC=PAC+PCA

DPC>PAC.......(1)

InΔADB, DPB is exterior angle then,

BPD=PAB+PBA

BPD>PAB.......(2)

Adding equation (1) and (2) to, we get

DPC+BPD=PAB+PAC

BPC>BAC

Hence proved.
