Question 252008: if x=c*y+b*z
y=a*z+c*x
z=b*x+a*y
Then prove that x^2/1-a^2=y^2/1-b^2=z^2/1-c^2

if



Then prove that
                
Solve the second for c:



Use the third equation to substitute for z


Use this and the third original equation to substitute
for both c and z in the first equation:




Multiply thru by x:







Divide both sides by 





 

To prove that one of these also equals 
is exactly similar to the above.
