Question

if a + b + c=9 and ab + bc + ca + =23, find the value of a2 + b2+ c2​

Answer 1

Answer:

35

Step-by-step explanation:

We already know , a³+b³+c³- 3abc = (a+b+c) (a²+b²+c²-ab-bc-ca)

a+b+c= 9 (given)

ab + bc + ca = 23 (given)

⇒ a³+b³+c³- 3abc = 9 (a²+b²+c²- 23)            ... (1)

(a+b+c)²= a²+b²+c²+ 2ab+ 2bc+ 2ca

92= a²+b²+c²+ 2(ab+bc+ca)

81= a²+b²+c²+ 2(23)

81 = a²+b²+c²+ 46

a²+b²+c²= 81-46

a²+b²+c² = 35
