To solve the problem, we need to analyze the quadratic equation given and determine the conditions under which its roots are real. The equation is: \[ x^2 + 2(a + b + c)x + 3\lambda(ab + bc + ca) = 0 \] ### Step 1: Identify the discriminant For the roots of a quadratic equation \( ax^2 + bx + c = 0 \) to be real, the discriminant must be non-negative. The discriminant \( D \) is given by: \[ D = b^2 - 4ac \] ...
