If $1, \omega, \omega^2$ are the cube roots of unity then the value of $(x+y)^2+\left(x \omega+y \omega^2\right)^2+\left(x \omega^2+y \omega\right)^2$ is
  1. $2 x^2 \cdot 3 y^2$
  2. $4 x y$
  3. $6 x y$
  4. $2 x^2 \cdot 2 y^2$

Solution

Given that $1, \mathrm{w}, \mathrm{w}^2$ are the cube roots of unity. $\therefore 1+\mathrm{w}+\mathrm{w}^2=0$ and $\mathrm{w}^3=1$. Now, $(x+y)^2\left(x w+y w^2\right)+\left(x w^2+y w\right)^2$ $\begin{aligned} & =x^2+y^2+2 x y+x^2 w^2+y^2 w^4+2 x y w^3 \\ & +x^2 w^4+y^2 w^2+2 x y w^3 \\ & =x^2+y^2+2 x y+x^2 w^2+y^2 w+2 x y+x^2 w+y^2 w^2+2 x y \\ & =x^2+y^2+6 x y+x^2\left(w^2+w\right)+y^2\left(w+w^2\right) \\ & =x^2+y^2+6 x y-x^2-y^2=6 x y\end{aligned}$
