Problem Statement

Given a triangular pyramid SABCSABC, in which BSC=α\angle BSC = \alpha, CSA=β\angle CSA =\beta, ASB=γ\angle ASB = \gamma, and the dihedral angles at the edges SASA and SBSB have the value of ϕ\phi and δ\delta, respectively. Prove that γ>αcosδ+βcosϕ.\gamma > \alpha \cdot \cos \delta +\beta \cdot \cos \phi.$
