Question
Write the following in the expanded form:
$(a b+b c+c a)^2$
✓
Answer
We have,
$(a b+b c+c a)^2=(a b)^2+(b c)^2+(c a)^2+2(a b)(b c)+2(b c)(c a)+2(a b)(c a)$
${\left[\therefore(x+y+z)^2=x^2+y^2+z^2+2 x y+2 y z+2 x z\right]}$
$=a^2 b^2+b^2 c^2+c^2 a^2+2(a c) b^2+2(a b)(c)^2+2(b c)(a)^2$
$(a b+b c+c a)^2=a^2 b^2+b^2 c^2+c^2 a^2+2 a c b^2+2 a b c^2+2 b c a^2$
