Abstract

Some problems, though not direct inequality problems, use inequalities in their solutions. This is the case when the problems on maximisation and minimisation are considered. Inequalities are also useful in solving some Diophantine equations by way of estimating the bounds for solutions. They also help us to determine whether some polynomial equations have real roots. Here we consider several problems whose solutions use inequalities.
