Homework Statement
if(i have attached the equation's pic) then
prove a=b=c or (a+b+c)(x+y+z)=ax+by+cz
Homework Equations
if a/b=c/d=e/f
each ratio = (a+c+e)/(b+d+f)
The Attempt at a Solution
I was able to prove (a+b+c)(x+y+z)=ax+by+cz
like this:
each ratio= (a2+b2+c2-ab-bc-ca)/x+y+z
also
each ratio= (a3+b3+c[SUP3[/SUP]-3abc)/ax+by+cz
(i hope i could make you understand how i did this)
since
(a2+b2+c2-ab-bc-ca)/x+y+z =(a3+b3+c[SUP3[/SUP]-3abc)/ax+by+cz
→(a2+b2+c2-ab-bc-ca)/x+y+z=
(a+b+c)(a2+b2+c2-ab-bc-ca)/ax+by+cz
therefore
(a+b+c)(x+y+z)=ax+by+cz
fine uptill here but i can't understand how do i prove a=b=c??
tried it like this
(a+b+c)(x+y+z)=ax+by+cz
→bx+cx+ay+cy+az+bz=0
i can go further than this .Please give me a clue .
And if i have gone wrong somewhere please point it out.
Thank you.
