Find $$ab + bc + ca$$ given that:

$$a^{2} + ab + b^{2} = 2$$

$$b^{2} + bc + c^{2} = 1$$

$$c^{2} + ca + a^{2} = 3$$

Giveb that a, b, and c are positive numbers.

@Aneesh Kundu I know its a very late reply , still .. Isn't your Eq 5 wrong? · 4 months, 3 weeks ago

Yah sir, after a year and a half, I figure it out how this can be solve. :) · 4 months, 2 weeks ago

By the way , you post some really interesting questions ...I love them.

Even you can try my sets out

Its absolutely brilliant that you have devised your own method...:) :) :)

I saw someone who figure it out how this can be solve. :) I just somewhat get it. XD And somewhat make it more elaborative.

~ Do you think there are other ways to solve this except for the geometric method? · 4 months, 2 weeks ago

At present , I can't think of any other way. · 4 months, 2 weeks ago

Is the question correct? There don't exist positive $$a,b,c$$ for which these equations are true. · 1 year, 10 months ago
