Abstract

This chapter is devoted to the inequalities related to areas and it consists of only one paragraph, that is Section 3.1. One of the methods for proving the inequalities related to areas (of some figures on the plane) is the following: if the figures with areas S 1 S 2 , . . . , S k cover a figure with area S, then S 1 + S 2 + . . . + S k S.
