If a + B + C = 11 and A2 + B2 + C2 = 81, Find : Ab + Bc + Ca. - Mathematics

If a + b + c = 11 and a² + b² + c² = 81, find : ab + bc + ca.

Sum

Since (a + b + c)² = a²+ b² + c² + 2 (ab + bc + ca)

∴ (11)² = 81 + 2 (ab + bc + ca)

∴ 2(ab + bc + ca) = 121 − 81 = 40

ab + bc + ca = `40/2`

⇒ ab + bc + ca = 20
