Let x,y,zx,y,z represent the side lengths of any triangle, and s=x+y+z2s=\dfrac{x+y+z}{2} and the area of this triangle be s\sqrt{s} square units. Prove that s(1x(s−x)2+1y(s−y)2+1z(s−z)2)≥12(1s−x+1s−y+1s−z)s\Big(\frac{1}{x(s-x)^2}+\frac{1}{y(s-y)^2}+\frac{1}{z(s-z)^ 2} \Big)\ge \frac{1}{2} \Big(\frac{1}{s-x}+\frac{1}{s-y}+\frac{1}{s-z}\Big) (Zhuge Liang)
