If $$b(a^2 - bc)(1 - ac) = a(b^2 - ca)(1 - bc)$$ where $$a \neq b$$ and $$abc \neq 0$$, prove that $$a + b + c = \frac{1}{a} + \frac{1}{b} + \frac{1}{c}$$.

A straight line $$\ell$$ is drawn through the vertex C of an equilateral triangle ABC, wholly lying outside the triangle. AL, BM are drawn perpendiculars to the straight line $$\ell$$. If N is the midpoint of AB, prove that $$\triangle LMN$$ is an equilateral triangle.

ABCD is a parallelogram. Through C, a straight line is drawn outside the parallelogram. AP, BQ and DR are drawn perpendicular to this line. Show that $$AP = BQ + DR$$. If the line through C cuts one side internally, then will the same result hold? If so prove it. If not, what is the corresponding result? Justify your answer.

(a) Solve for x the equation $$\frac{x+5}{2018} + \frac{x+4}{2019} + \frac{x+3}{2020} + \frac{x+2}{2021} + \frac{x+1}{2022} + \frac{x}{2023} = -6$$.
(b) $$\frac{a^2+b^2}{725} = \frac{b^2+c^2}{149} = \frac{c^2+a^2}{674}$$ and $$a - c = 18$$, find the value of $$(a + b + c)$$.
