Draw a line segment, say AB. Take any point C lying in between A and B. Measure the lengths of AB , BC , and AC. Is $AB = AC + CB $?
Given :
The given statement is, draw a line segment, say AB. Take any point C lying in between A and B.
To do :
We have to check, Is $AB = AC + CB $?
Solution :
As we can see from the above figure,
$AB = AC+CB$
Therefore,
If A,B,C are any three points on a line such that $AC+CB = AB$, then we can be sure
that C lies between A and B.
