Given, a + b + c = 9 ab + bc + ca = 40 To find : a² + b² + c² The FOLLOWING expression matches to the algebraic identity (a + b + c)² = a² + b² + c² + 2ab + 2bc + 2ac or (a + b + c)² = a² + b² + c² + 2( ab + bc + ac) Thus, (a + b + c)² = a² + b² + c² + 2(ab + bc + ac) substituting the values, we have, 9² = a² + b² + c² + 2( 40) 81 = a² + b² + c² + 80 Transposing 80 to LHS, we have, 81 - 80 = a² + b² + c² Thus, a² + b² + c² = 1 |
