Luis' friends played a prank on him in his geometry homework. They erased the entire triangle but left traces equivalent to two sides measuring $a$ and $b$, with $b > a$, and the height $h$ falling on the side measuring $b$, with $h < a$.

Since Luis' method does not involve measurements, prove that his method results in a triangle longer than its given sides and height.
