\n" ); document.write( "In triangle ABC, let D be a point on side BC. Select all the true statements.

\n" ); document.write( "If AD is an altitude of triangle ABC, then AC > AD.
\n" ); document.write( "TRUE. If AD is an altitude, then it is the shortest distance from A to any point on BC; in particular, it is shorter than AC.

\n" ); document.write( "If AD is a median of triangle ABC, then BD > CD.
\n" ); document.write( "FALSE. By definition, if AD is a median then BD = CD.

\n" ); document.write( "If AD is an angle bisector of triangle ABC, then AB > BD.
\n" ); document.write( "FALSE. If angle B is a right angle or an obtuse angle, then AB is always shorter than AD.

\n" ); document.write( "
