Step-by-step explanation:
GIVEN THAT a+b+c =0 -------1²
now, 1/a²+b²+c² + 1/b²+c²-a² + 1/c²+a²-b²
=1/a²+(b+c)(b-c) + 1/b²+(c+a)(c-a) + 1/c²+(c+b)(a-b)
=1/a²+(-a)(b-c) + 1/b²+ (-b)(c-a) + 1/c²+ (-c)(a-b) (from 1)
=1/a(a-b+c) + 1/b(a+b-c) = 1/c(c-a+b)
=1/a(a+c-b) + 1/b(a+b-c) + 1/c(b+c-a)
=1/a(-b-b) + 1/b(-c-c) + 1/ c (-a-a) (frpom 1)
=1/-2ab + 1/-2bc + 1/-2ac
= 1/-2 (1/ab + 1/bc+ 1/ac )
= -1/2 (a+b+c/abc)
=-1/2 (0) (from 1)
= 0
