1would rationalising each term be useful???????????
lets see who can do this. this one`s for all oldies in this site like priyam ,skygirl.eureka,srinath, prophet sir, celestine, anirudh, sankara,unique,mak, NISHANT BHAIYAN, MANISH BHAIYAN, LOKESH BHAIYAN and others. { i miss rohan and ith power}
let a,b,c≥0 satisfying ab+bc+ca=1
prove that Σ 1/√a2+bc ≥2√2
there the square root is for total denominator. ALL THE BEST.

24only IMO questions are not dificult dear...........there are putnam ,berkeley,chinese olympiad nd russian olympiads which also have far difficult problems.....[1]
i am trying this..........will try to get in 4 days[9]
1@mathie.... duniya badal jaye... no compromising wid sleep... [2]
:P sry [3]
62A couple of changes to make the proof more elaborate... Only one line added and one line (which i wrote wrongly removed)
apply AM GM inequality.
equality holds when
a2 + bc = b2 + ac
thus, (a-b)(a+b)=(a-b)c so a=b or a+b=c
similarly, (a-c)(a+c)=(a-c)b so a=c or a+c=b
and (c-b)(c+b)=(c-b)a so c=b or b+c=a
assume a=b
then the three cases will reduce to a=b
and ( a=c or c=0 )
if a=b and a=c
then we have proved the result.
if a=b and c=0
then ab=1 so a=1 and b=1 and c=0 which holds bcos LHS =3 <2 root 2
now take the second case
a+b=c and a+c=b and b+c=a
cos if any other holds (i mean a=c or b=c) we will be back to our previous case.
so a+b+c=0 which is not true. hence not possible.
Is it done? Or you think there are flaws?
39tell me something, i accept it will take half hour but cant u take out half our from your sleep and do this?
its not neccesity but this question is worth it. nothing other than simple inequalities, yet a great question. thats why i siad lets see who can do this.
1If the root was not for whole denominator .............it would be better....

9a prob like this wud eat away at least 1/2 hr so u shud try this in 11th itself
9this isnt a jee prob so cant compare !!
probs like these are very interesting but time consuming
i ud advice to concentrate on jee maths for next 2 months cos it requires speed
11Sorry dude....this problem is out of my scope.....can anyone tell me how this problem compares to JEE level of toughness?
39ANIRUDH I THINK IT WOULD BE BETTER IF U CONCNTRATE ON GETTING THE SOLUTION
9heres a very stupid sol ;)
the a=b=c gives maxima ie 3√3/2
now minima by anti symmetry rule occurs when a tends to maxima with b,c tending to minima ie b,c→0 and a→1/2(0) sub and solve
39its not about getting in 4 days , its about striking the excellent way to do it.
39no sir, AS FAR AS I KNOW ITS NOT AN IMO QUESTION, IF NOT EUREKA WOULD HAVE ALREADY POINTED na .
really as far as i know its not an imo mone.
but i really loved the way i had to get to its solution. even i had to try for 4 days.
39u r right prophet sir. by the way no oldies who can do this?{excluding prophet sir, he is a math genious }
33there the square root is for total denominator. ALL THE BEST.
he wrote that...
33Σ 1/√a2+bc ≥2√2
kiska sum hai... which is variable for Σ [12]
