Solution

The correct option is D p2+q2+r2=p+q+r
p+q+r=a+bω+cω2+b+cω+aω2+c+aω+bω2
=a(1+ω+ω2)+b(1+ω+ω2)+c(1+ω+ω2)=0 (As 1+ω+ω2=0)

(p+q+r)2=p2+q2+r2+2(pq+qr+rp)

p2+q2+r2=2(pq+qr+rp)

=2(ab+acω+a2ω2+b2ω+bcω2+abω3+bcω2+c2ω3+acω4
+bc+abω+b2ω2+c2ω+acω2+bcω3 +acω2+a2ω3+abω4+
ac+a2ω+abω2+bcω+abω2+b2ω3+c2ω2+acω3+bcω4)

=2(ab+acω+a2ω2+b2ω+bcω2+ab+bcω2+c2+acω+
+bc+abω+b2ω2+c2ω+acω2+bc+acω2+a2+abω
+ac+a2ω+abω2+bcω+abω2+b2+c2ω2+ac+bcω)

=2(a2(ω2+1+ω)+b2(ω+ω2+1)+c2(1+ω+ω2)
+ab(1+1+ω+ω+ω2+ω2)
+ac(ω+ω+ω2+ω2+1+1)
+bc(ω2+ω2+1+1+ω+ω))
