Correct Answer: AL + BM + CN < AB + BC + CA

We know the theorem states that the sum of three altitudes of a triangle is less than the sum of three sides of the triangle. The altitudes form right angles with the opposite sides of the triangle.
Hence, the correct answer is AL + BM + CN < AB + BC + CA.
