If x . y . z = 1 show that 1 1 + x + y 1 + 1 1 + y + z 1 + 1 1 + z + x 1 = 1
My attempt - L.H.S = 1 1 + x + y 1 + 1 1 + y + z 1 + 1 1 + z + x 1
= y y + x y + 1 + z z + y z + 1 + x x + z x + 1
= y z y z + x y z + z + z z + y z + 1 + x x + z x + 1
What to do next?

1 1 + x + y 1 = y y + x y + 1 = y z y z + x y z + z (  multiplying by  z )
1 1 + x + y 1 = y z y z + 1 + z
1 1 + y + z 1 = z z + y z + 1 (  multiplying by  z )
1 1 + z + x 1 = x x + z x + 1 = x y z x y z + y z ( z x ) + y z (  multiplying by  y z )
1 1 + z + x 1 = 1 1 + z + y z

y z y z + x y z + z + z z + y z + 1 + x x + z x + 1
= y z y z + 1 + z + x z x z + x y z + x + x x + z x + 1
= x y z x y z + x + z x + x z x z + 1 + x + x x + z x + 1
= 1 1 + x + z x + x z x z + 1 + x + x x + z x + 1
= 1 + x + z x 1 + x + z x
= 1
