Solution

The correct options are
A ab+bc+ca=nl
B abc(bc+ca+ab)+3(a+b+c)=0
C a+b+c=ml
Since the given point lies on the line lx+my+n=0, so a,b,c are the roots of the equation
l(t3t1)+m(t23t1)+n=0 or
lt3+mt2+nt(3m+n)=0
Hence, a+b+c=ml ...... (i)
ab+bc+ca=nl ...... (ii)
abc=3m+nl ...... (iii)
So, from Equations (i), (ii) and (iii), we get
abc(bc+ca+ab)+3(a+b+c)=0
