Proof without words of the AM–GM inequality: PR is the diameter of a circle centered on O; its radius AO is the arithmetic mean of a and b. Using the geometric mean theorem, triangle PGR's altitude GQ is the geometric mean. For any ratio a:b, AO ≥ GQ. Visual proof that (x + y) 2 ≥ 4xy. Taking square roots and dividing by two gives the AM ...

Proof without words of the inequality of arithmetic and geometric means, drawn by CMG Lee. PR is a diameter of a circle centred on O; its radius AO is the arithmetic mean of a and b . Using the geometric mean theorem, right triangle PGR can be split into two similar triangles PQG and GQR; GQ / a = b / GQ, hence GQ = √( ab ), the geometric mean.

There are three inequalities between means to prove. There are various methods to prove the inequalities, including mathematical induction, the Cauchy–Schwarz inequality, Lagrange multipliers, and Jensen's inequality. For several proofs that GM ≤ AM, see Inequality of arithmetic and geometric means.
