Given that x=−a+b+c,y=a−b+c,z=a+b−c,a2+b2+c2=20,\begin{aligned} & x = -a+b+c, \\ & y = a-b+c, \\ & z = a+b-c ,\\ & a^2+b^2+c^2 =20, \end{aligned} find the value of x2+y2+z2+xy+yz+zxx^2+y^2+z^2+xy+yz+zx.

Suppose aa, bb and cc are real numbers such that a+b+c=5.a+b+c=5. If x=a−2b+3c,y=b−2c+3a,z=c−2a+3b,x=a-2b+3c, y=b-2c+3a, z=c-2a+3b, what is the value of (x2+2xy+4)+(y2+2yz+4)+(z2+2zx+4)?(x^2+2xy+4)+(y^2+2yz+4)+(z^2+2zx+4)?
