If a+b+c=0 then prove the following. (bc+ca+ab)^(2) =b^(2)c^(2) +c^(2)a^(2) +a^(2)b^(2)=(1)/(4) (a^(2) +b^(2) +c^(2))^(2)

Factorize each of the following expressions: ab(a^(2)+b^(2)-c^(2))+bc(a^(2)+b^(2)-c^(2))-ca(a^(2)+b^(2)-c^(2))

If ab+bc+ca=0 , then the value of ((b^(2)-ca)(c^(2)-ab)+(a^(2)-bc)(c^(2)-ab)+(a^(2)-bc)(b^(2)-ca))/((a^(2)-bc)(b^(2)-ca)(c^(2)-ab)) is

Given : a^(2)+b^(2)+c^(2) =0 Prove the following : |{:(b^(2)+c^(2),ab,ca),(ab,c^(2)+a^(2),bc),(ca,bc,a^(2)+b^(2)):}|=4a^(2)b^(2)c^(2)

If ab + bc + ca = 0, then what is the value of (a^(2))/(a^(2) - bc) + (b^(2))/(b^(2)-ca) + (c^(2))/(c^(2) - ab) ?

If a+b+c=0 then prove the following. a^(2)+b^(2)+c^(2) = -2(bc+ca+ab)
