Detailed Solution

It is given a triangle with medians.
Evaluate by considering ABC   to be the triangle where D,E   and F   are the mid-points of BC,CA   and AB   respectively.
Question ImageAs it is known that the sum of two sides of the triangle is greater than twice the median bisecting the 3rd   side.
AB+AC>2AD  
AC+BC>2CF  
AB+BC>2BE  
Evaluate by adding all these.
(AB+BC)+(BC+AC)+(AB+BC)>2AD+2CF+2BE   2(AB+BC+AC)>2AD+2CF+2BE  
AB+BC+CA>AD+CF+BE   Hence, the perimeter of the ΔABC   is greater than the sum of its medians.
Hence the statement is true.
Hence option 1 is correct.
