If a²+b²+c²=80 and a+b+c=20, then fimd the value of ab+bc+ca.

Answer»

a + B + c = 20



Square on both sides,



( a + b + c )^2 = 20^2


=> a^2 + b^2 + c^2 +2( ab + bc + CA ) = 400





putting the given VALUES,



=> 80 + 2( ab + bc + ca ) == 400


=> 2( ab + bc + ca ) = 320


=> ab + bc + ca = 320/2


=> ab + bc + ca = 160
