A geometrical inequality with a sphere

A bee flied 4 meters (in total) and back to the original spot. Prove its path can be inscribed in a sphere with radius 1m. I am bad at $3D$ geometry, so I tried to reduce it to a plane, but I still can't solve it. Any help appreciated.

Inequality concerning segments of an interior point to vertices of a triangle

Let $ABC$ be a triangle and it has an interior point $P$ inside. Show that: $$BC\cdot BP\cdot CP + CA\cdot CP\cdot AP + AB\cdot AP\cdot BP\geq AB\cdot BC\cdot CA$$ If can, how? Or does the triangle need specific conditions to match such…

Solving an inequality fot hyperbolas

I am trying to solve: $$\frac{1}{x-2} < \frac{1}{x+2}. $$ I think I have done so by sketching the graph, namely $-2 < x < 2 $ but I would like to see how I could have done this algebraically. TIA

Geometric Inequality $(a+b)(b+c)(c+a)(s-a)(s-b)(s-c)\leq (abc)^{2}$

everyone. $a$,$b$,$c$ are three sides of a triangle. Prove or disprove the following. $(a+b)(b+c)(c+a)(a+b-c)(b+c-a)(c+a-b)\leq 8(abc)^{2}$ I know two inequalities. $8(s-a)(s-b)(s-c)\leq abc~$ , $~(a+b)(b+c)(c+a)\geq 8abc$ But for the…

If $m_a$ be the length of the median on side $a$ of acute angled triangle $ABC$ then $(m_a)^2 \le 2b^2c^2(1+\cos A)$..

Is this following inequality true? If $m_a$ be the length of the median on side $a$ of acute angled triangle $ABC$ then $(m_a)^2 \le 2b^2c^2(1+\cos A)$.. After simplifying I am getting $ \frac{1}{bc} < \frac{4((b+c)^2-a^2)}{2b^2+2c^2-a^2}$ .But what…

Let P be any point inside a triangle $\triangle ABC$. Geometric Inequality

Let P be any point inside a triangle $\triangle ABC$. $A$ and $P$ are joined and extended so that $AP$ when extended intersects $BC$ on $D$. Similarly define $E$ and $F$ on $CA$ and $AB$. Prove that $PD + PE + PF < \max(AB , BC , CA)$.
