Trio of abc

Algebra Level pending

Both roots of x 2 ( a 2 + b 2 + c 2 ) x + ( a 2 b 2 + b 2 c 2 + c 2 a 2 ) = 0 x^{2}-(a^{2}+b^{2}+c^{2})x+(a^{2}b^{2}+b^{2}c^{2}+c^{2}a^{2})=0 are non real.

If a 2 + b 2 + c 2 < [ k ] ( a b + b c + c a ) a^{2}+b^{2}+c^{2}<[k](|ab|+|bc|+|ca|) ,then find the minimum value of k k .

Here, [ ] [•] represents greatest integer function and |•| reprents modulus function.


The answer is 2.
