Question -

In a AABC, AD bisects ∠A and ∠C > ∠B. Prove that ∠ADB > ∠ADC.



Answer -

Given : In ∆ABC,
∠C > ∠B and AD is the bisector of ∠A
 
To prove : ∠ADB > ∠ADC
Proof: In ∆ABC, AD is the bisector of ∠A
∴ ∠1 = ∠2
In ∆ADC,
Ext. ∠ADB = ∠l+ ∠C
⇒ ∠C = ∠ADB – ∠1 …(i)
Similarly, in ∆ABD,
Ext. ∠ADC = ∠2 + ∠B
⇒ ∠B = ∠ADC – ∠2 …(ii)
From (i) and (ii)
∵ ∠C > ∠B (Given)
∴ (∠ADB – ∠1) > (∠ADC – ∠2)
But ∠1 = ∠2
∴ ∠ADB > ∠ADC
