proof of Hadwiger-Finsler inequality
From the cosines law we get:
being the angle between and . This can be transformed into:
Since we have:
Now remember that
and
Using this we get:
Doing this for all sides of the triangle and adding up we get:
and being the other angles of the triangle. Now since the halves of the triangle’s angles are less than the function is convex we have:
Using this we get:
This is the Hadwiger-Finsler inequality.
