Cauchy's Mean Theorem

Theorem
Let $x_1, x_2, \ldots, x_n \in \R$ be real numbers which are all positive.

Let $A_n$ be the arithmetic mean of $x_1, x_2, \ldots, x_n$.

Let $G_n$ be the geometric mean of $x_1, x_2, \ldots, x_n$.

Then $A_n \ge G_n$.

Also known as
It is widely known as the Arithmetic Mean-Geometric Mean Inequality or AM-GM Inequality.

Some sources give this as Cauchy's formula.
