Question:

If \(\frac{x^2}{yz}\) + \(\frac{y^2}{zx}\) + \(\frac{z^2}{xy}\) = 3

Find (x + y + z)3

Options:

-2

1

2

0

Correct Answer:

0

Explanation:

Given, \(\frac{x^2}{yz}\) + \(\frac{y^2}{zx}\) + \(\frac{z^2}{xy}\) = 3

\(\frac{x^3 + y^3 + z^3}{xyz}\) = 3

x3 + y3 + z3 = 3xyz → (possible only when x +y + z = 0)

(x+ y + z)3 = (0)3 = 0
