Question

If cos-1 x + cos-1y + cos-1z = 3π, then show that x2 + y2 + z2 + 2xyz = 1.

Sum

Solution

0 ≤ cos-1x ≤ π and 

cos-1x + cos-1 y + cos-1z = 3π

∴ cos-1x = π, cos-1y = π  and cos-1z = π

∴ x = y = z = cos π = - 1

∴ x2 + y2 + z2 + 2xyz

= (- 1)2 + (- 1)2 + (- 1)2 + 2(- 1)(- 1)(- 1)

= 1 + 1 + 1 - 2

= 3 - 2

= 1.
