Detailed Solution

Consider a triangle ABC  .
Question ImageConsider AC>AB  .
Then, along AC   constructing AD=AB   and joining BD  .
In ΔABD  ,
Since AD=AB  ,
ABD=ADB                               ..….(1)
Since angles opposite to equal sides
ABD=2                                       ……(2)
Evaluate the relationship between the angles.
Therefore, 1<ABD  ,
1=2                                ……(3)
Now, from (2) since, 2   is an exterior angle,
2>3                               ……(4)
Evaluate Using (3) and (4),
1>3   Since the side BC   opposite to a greater angle is longer,
BC>DC  
BC>ACAD  
Since, AD=AB  ,
BC>ACAB  
Hence the difference of 2   sides of the triangle is less than the third side.
Hence the statement is true.
Hence option 1 is correct.
