Question
If $a + b + c = 0$ then $\Big(\frac{\text{a}^2}{\text{bc}}+\frac{\text{b}^2}{\text{ca}}+\frac{\text{c}^2}{\text{ab}}\Big)=?$
✓
Answer
$a + b + c = 0$
$\Rightarrow a^3 + b^3 + c^3 = 3abc$
Thus, we have:
$\Big(\frac{\text{a}^2}{\text{bc}}+\frac{\text{b}^2}{\text{ca}}+\frac{\text{c}^2}{\text{ab}}\Big)=\frac{\text{a}^3+\text{b}^3+\text{c}^3}{\text{abc}}$
$=\frac{3\text{abc}}{\text{abc}}$
$=3$
$\Rightarrow a^3 + b^3 + c^3 = 3abc$
Thus, we have:
$\Big(\frac{\text{a}^2}{\text{bc}}+\frac{\text{b}^2}{\text{ca}}+\frac{\text{c}^2}{\text{ab}}\Big)=\frac{\text{a}^3+\text{b}^3+\text{c}^3}{\text{abc}}$
$=\frac{3\text{abc}}{\text{abc}}$
$=3$
