Abstract
The two basic geometric inequalities we will be refering to in this section involve triangles. One of them is the triangle inequality and we will refer to it as D1; the second one is not really an inequality, but it represents an important observation concerning the geometry of triangles which points out that if we know the greatest angle of a triangle, then we know which is the longest side of the triangle; this observation will be denoted as D2.
