The question is posted wrongly. The correct question is given below
 
if 1/(b+c), 1/(c+a) and 1/(a+b) are in A.P., then prove that a2 , b2 and c2 are also in A.P
-----------------------
 
let us solve the correct one.
 
if 1/(b+c), 1/(c+a) and 1/(a+b) are in A.P., then difference between 2nd term and first term is equal to
difference between 3rd term and 2nd term.
 
hence
