If $a + b + c = 9$ and $ab + bc + ca = 23$, find the value of $a^2 + b^2 + c^2$.
Given:
$a + b + c = 9$ and $ab + bc + ca = 23$
To do:
We have to find the value of $a^2 + b^2 + c^2$.
Solution:
We know that,
$(a+b+c)^2=a^2+b^2+c^2+2ab+2bc+2ca$
Therefore,
$(a + b + c)^2 = a^2 + b^2 + c^2 + 2(ab + bc + ca)$
$9^2 = a^2 + b^2 + c^2 + 2 \times 23$
$81= a^2 + b^2 + c^2 + 46$
$a^2 + b^2 + c^2 = 81 - 46$
$a^2 + b^2 + c^2 = 35$
Hence, the value of $a^2 + b^2 + c^2$ is $35$.
