    As per the given in question , we draw a figure of triangle ABC

    AB
    =
    BD
    ACDC

    ∴ AD is the bisector of ∠A.
    ∴ ∠BAD =
    1
    (∠BAC)
    2

    ∴ ∠BAD =
    180 - ∠B - ∠C
    2

    Correct Option: C

    On the basis of given in question , we draw a figure triangle ABC in which AD, BE and CF are three medians ,

    We know that sum of any two sides of a triangle is greater than twice the mediun bisecting the third side.
    Here, D, E and F are the midpoint of the sides BC, AC and AB.
    ∴ AB + AC > 2 AD
    AB + BC > 2BE
    BC + AC > 2 CF
    Adding all three, we get

    Correct Option: B

    ⇒ AB + BC + AC > AD + BE + CF



  1. In ∆ABC, ∠A < ∠B. The altitude to the base divides vertex angle C into two parts C1 and C2,with C2,adjacent to BC. Then

    Firstly , We draw a figure of triangle ABC

    ∠BAC < ∠CBA
    ∠CDA = ∠CDB = 90°; ∠C1 > ∠C2
    ∠A + ∠C1 = 90°
    ∠B + ∠C2 = 90°
    ∴ ∠A + ∠C1 = ∠B + ∠C2

    Correct Option: C

    Firstly , We draw a figure of triangle ABC

    ∠BAC < ∠CBA
    ∠CDA = ∠CDB = 90°; ∠C1 > ∠C2
    ∠A + ∠C1 = 90°
    ∠B + ∠C2 = 90°
    ∴ ∠A + ∠C1 = ∠B + ∠C2
    ∴ ∠B – ∠A = ∠C1 – ∠C2

    On the basis of given in question , we draw a figure triangle ABC ,

    BO, CO and AO are internal bisectors of ∠B, ∠C and ∠A respectively.
    Here , ∠BOC = 120°

    ∴ ∠BOC = 90° +
    ∠A
    2

    ⇒ 120° = 90° +
    ∠A
    2

    Correct Option: B

    BO, CO and AO are internal bisectors of ∠B, ∠C and ∠A respectively.
    Here , ∠BOC = 120°

    ∴ ∠BOC = 90° +
    ∠A
    2

    ⇒ 120° = 90° +
    ∠A
    2

    ∠A
    = 120° - 90° = 30°

    ∴ ∠A = 30 × 2 = 60°

    On the basis of given in question , we draw a figure triangle ABC ,

    ∠CBE = 130°
    ∴ ∠ABC = 180° – 130° = 50°
    ∠ACF = 130°
    ∴ ∠ACB = 180° – 130° = 50°

    Correct Option: A

    On the basis of given in question , we draw a figure triangle ABC ,

    ∠CBE = 130°
    ∴ ∠ABC = 180° – 130° = 50°
    ∠ACF = 130°
    ∴ ∠ACB = 180° – 130° = 50°
    ∴ ∠BAC = 180° – 50° – 50° = 80°
    ∴ ∠GAB = 180° – 80° = 100°
