Answer:

m<ABC > m<ACB (angle property of a triangle)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that: ΔABC

                  AB = AX

Prove: m<ABC > m<ACB

From the given diagram,

ΔABX is an isosceles triangle (two congruent sides and angles)

<AXB = m<ABX = [tex]90^{o}[/tex] (isosceles triangle property)

AC = AX + XC

Thus,

AC > AB

m<ABC = m1 + m3 ≥  [tex]90^{o}[/tex]

m<ACB < [tex]90^{o}[/tex] (acute angle property)

Therefore since in a triangle the longest side is opposite to the greatest angle, then;

m<ABC > m<ACB (angle property of a triangle)
