Proposition In $\triangle A B C$, $t_{a} 、 t_{b} 、 t_{c}$ are the lengths of the internal angle bisectors. Then we have $$ \sum \frac{a^{2}}{t_{b}^{2}+t_{c}^{2}} \geqslant 2 \text {. } $$ Equality holds if and only if $\triangle A B C$ is an equilateral triangle.
Proof: By the angle bisector length formula, we have $$ t_{a}=\frac{2 \sqrt{b c}}{b+c} \sqrt{p(p-a)} \leqslant \sqrt{p(p-a)} . $$ Similarly, \( t_{b} \leqslant \sqrt{p(p-b)} \), $$ t_{c} \leqslant \sqrt{p(p-c)} . $$ Thus, \( t_{b}^{2}+t_{c}^{2} \leqslant p(p-b)+p(p-c) \) $$ \begin{array}{c} \quad=a p . \\ \therefore ...

5. Let $E$, $F$, and $C$ be the midpoints of the edges $\overline{AB}$, $BC$, and $CD$ of a regular tetrahedron $ABCD$, respectively. Then the size of the dihedral angle $C$ $F G-E$ is ( ). (A) $\arcsin \frac{\sqrt{6}}{3}$ (B) $\frac{\pi}{2}+\arccos \frac{\sqrt{3}}{3}$ (C) $\frac{\pi}{2}-\operatorname{arctg} \sqrt{2}$ ...
5.D. As shown in the figure, construct $E E_{1} \perp$ plane $B C D$, then $E E_{1} \perp$ $B G$. $\because A B C D$ is a regular tetrahedron, $$ \begin{array}{l} \therefore A C \perp B D . \\ \text { Also, since } E F / / A C, \\ F G / / B D, \\ \therefore E F \perp F G . \end{array} $$ Thus, $E_{1} F \perp F G$.

6. Among the 8 vertices, 12 midpoints of edges, 6 centers of faces, and the center of the cube, a total of 27 points, the number of groups of three collinear points is ( ). (A) 57 (B) 49 (C) 43 (D) 37
6. B. The number of collinear triplets with both endpoints being vertices is $\frac{8 \times 7}{2}=28$ (groups); the number of collinear triplets with both endpoints being the centers of faces is $\frac{6 \times 1}{2}$ $=3$ (groups); the number of collinear triplets with both endpoints being the midpoints of edges is ...

Example 6 Given that $a, b, c$ are three non-negative real numbers, and satisfy $3a+2b+c=5, 2a+b-3c=1$. If $S=$ $3a+b-7c$, then the sum of the maximum and minimum values of $S$ is $\qquad$
Analysis: There are three variables in $S$, and we should try to eliminate two variables through the method of elimination to facilitate finding the extremum. Solution: From $3a + 2b = 5 - c$ and $2a + b = 3c + 1$, we get $a = 7c - 3, b = 7 - 11c$. Thus, $S = 3(7c - 3) + 7 - 11c - 7c = 3c - 2$. Since $a, b, c$ are non...
