4.6 Establish the following vector inequalities geometrically or otherwise:
(a) |a+b| < |a| + |b|
(b) |a+b| > ||a| −|b||
(c) |a−−b| < |a| + |b|
(d) |a−−b| > ||a| − |b||
When does the equality sign above apply?

In a triangle, each side is smaller than the sum of the other two sides. Therefore in ΔOMN, we have ON < (OM + MN)
< + ….(iv)
If the two vectors and act along a straight line in the same direction, then we can write = +
Combining equations (iv) and (v), we get
+
(b)
Let two vectors and be represented by the adjacent sides of a parallelogram OMNP.
We can write

=
In a triangle, each side is smaller than the sum of the other two sides. Therefore in ΔOMN, we have ON + MN > OM and ON + OM > MN

If the two vectors and act along a straight line in the same direction, then we can write = -
Combining (iv) and (v), we get:
-
(c)
Let two vectors and be represented by the adjacent sides of a parallelogram PORS.
We can write
= = ………(i)
=
In a triangle, each side is smaller than the sum of the other two sides. Therefore in ΔOPS, we have OS < OP + PS
+
+ …….(iii)
If the two vectors and act along a straight line but in the opposite direction, then we can write = +
Combining (iii) and (iv), we get
+
(d)
We can write
OS + PS > OP …….(i)
OS > PS – OP …….(ii)
+ ….(iii)
The quantity on the LHS is always positive and that on the RHS can be positive or negative. To make both quantities positive, we take modulus of both sides as:
> ….(iv)
If the two vectors and act along a straight line but in the opposite direction, then we can write = -
