If of triangle ABC and A'B'C' sides AB = A'B' and AC = A'C', and the included angle at A is larger than the included angle at A*, then BC > B'C'.
Proof:
A A'
/|\ /|
/ | \ / |
/ | \ / |
/ | \ B'/ |
B | X \C |C'
D
We construct AD such that AD = A'C' = AC and angle BAD = angle B'A'C'.
Triangles ABD and A'B'C' are congruent. Therefore BD = B'C'.
Let X be the point where the angle bisector of angle DAC meets BC.
From the congruent triangles AXC and AXD (SAS) we have that XD = XC.
Now, by the triangle inequality we have that BX + XD > BD, so BX + XC > BD, and consequently BC > BD = B'C'.

Select the postulate or theorem that could be used to prove QRT STR?
Well, this will depend on the length of the sides of the triangle for what postulate or theorem you will be using.

Why the name hinge theorem is used for theorem?
The theorem emulates the action of a hinge. As the angle of the hinge is increased the distance between the free edges increases.
Why is hinge theorem called hinge theorem?
because it works like a door hinge. When the door hinge is opened wider the angle is greater and when opened less the angle would be lesser.
what- can the hinge theorem be used to compare QRT?
no
Can a corollary be used to prove a theorem?
Yes, the corollary to one theorem can be used to prove another theorem.

What theorem is used to prove a segment is a bisector?
A segment need not be a bisector. No theorem can be used to prove something that may not be true!
