Let x, y, z be complex numbers such that z 9 yz zx xy x2 y2 z2 64 yz zx xy x3 y3 z3 488 yz zx xy z If where m, are positive integers with GCD (m, n) = 1, find + n. yz zx xy n
Hint 1: Start by analyzing the initial conditions and setting up the basic equations. 9.
Hint 2: Look for algebraic properties, symmetry, or geometric theorems to simplify. yz zx xy.
Hint 3: Proceed with the final algebraic steps to solve the system. 1 1 1 .
Step 1: 9
Step 2: yz zx xy
Step 3: 1 1 1
Step 4: x z 12
Step 5: y z z x y
Step 6: Let + + z = S1
Step 7: 1 1 1 12
Step 8:
Step 9: y z z x S1
Step 10: z
Step 11: Now, z 9S1
Step 12: y z z x y
Step 13: 64 + S1 = 9S1
Step 14: => S1 = 8
Step 15: x2 y2 z2
Step 16: x z 64 S1
Step 17: y z z x y
Step 18: 488 + (x2 + y2 + z2) = 64 × 8
Step 19: x2 + y2 + z2 = 24
Step 20: xy + yz + zx = = 20
Step 21: 1 1 1 12 3
Step 22: Now,
Step 23: xy yz zx 8 2
Step 24: 1 1 1 3
Step 25: 8–x 8–y 8–z 2
Step 26: (8 – x) (8 – y) (8 – z) = 56
Step 27: => xyz = 104
Step 28: x z 24 3 m
Step 29: So,
Step 30: yz zx xy 104 13 n
Step 31: => + = 16
