  • question_answer
    If \[\frac{{{x}^{2}}+{{y}^{2}}+{{z}^{2}}-64}{xy-yz-zx}=-2\] and \[x+y=3z,\]then the value of z is:

    A)  2                    

    B)  3

    C)  4                    

    D)  None of these

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

     Given \[{{x}^{2}}+{{y}^{2}}-{{z}^{2}}-64=-2(xy-yz-xz)\] Now, \[{{\left[ x+y+{{(-z)}^{2}} \right]}^{2}}=\,{{x}^{2}}+{{y}^{2}}+{{z}^{2}}+\,2(xy-yz-zx)\] \[(3z-{{z}^{2}}={{x}^{2}}+{{y}^{2}}+{{z}^{2}}+2(xy-yz-zx)\] \[-2(xy-yz-zx)=({{x}^{2}}+{{y}^{2}}+{{z}^{2}})-{{(2z)}^{2}}\] From (i) and (ii), we get: \[(2x)2=64\] \[4{{z}^{2}}=64\Leftrightarrow {{z}^{2}}=16\Leftrightarrow z=4\]
