Prove that \((a + b - c)/2 < m_c < (a + b)/2\), where \(a\), \(b\) and \(c\) are the lengths of the sides of an arbitrary triangle and \(m_c\) is the median to side \(c\).

Prove that \(\angle ABC < \angle BAC\) if and only if \(AC < BC\), that is, the larger side lies opposite the larger angle of the triangle, and opposite the larger side lies the larger angle.

Prove that the segment connecting the vertex of an isosceles triangle to a point lying on the base is no greater than the lateral side of the triangle.
