x^2+ y^2+ z^2 − xy − yz − zx = 3

(x-y)^2 + (x-z)^2 + (y-z)^2 = 6
then you can simply find the integer values that solve this

#

a=x-y
b=x-z
c=y-z
a^2 + b^2 + c^2 = 6

can you make a more full explanation

#

@severe ice

severe ice
#

so if you multiply both sides by 2 then you can factorise it down to those terms

#

could u do it and make a full explanation

severe ice
#

so:
2x^2 + 2y^2 + 2z^2 - 2xy - 2yz - 2zx = 6
which then if you group terms you can complete the square:
2x^2 - 2xy - 2xz + 2y^2 - 2yz + 2z^2
(x-y)^2 + (x-z)^2 + (y-z)^2 = 6

can you do a full explanation with the full answer with like a mathematical bot that writes the formulas

severe ice
#

if you dont know how to complete the square of that form then i suggest you look into converting an implicit formula into a circle formula

could u just maybe continue and give the full explanation
