Problem
If 
are the roots of the polynomial 
, find ![\[(\alpha^3+\beta\gamma)(\beta^3+\gamma\alpha)(\gamma^3+\alpha\beta).\]](http://latex.artofproblemsolving.com/a/4/6/a463ccc3de2f3710c58da87d8e3465af873f82ad.png)
Solution
By Vieta's relation we get, 
and 
Therefore we have to find the value of ![\[\prod_{cyc}{}(\alpha^3+\beta\gamma)\implies\prod_{cyc}{}\left(\alpha^3+\frac{4}{\alpha}\right)\implies\prod_{cyc}{}\left(\frac{\alpha^4+4}{\alpha}\right)\]](http://latex.artofproblemsolving.com/8/a/e/8ae1ae28e1b95d48942991cf35b67b66f57a8afb.png)
![\[\prod_{cyc}{}\left(\frac{\alpha^4+4}{\alpha}\right)=\frac{\prod_{cyc}{}(\alpha-(1+i))(\alpha-(1-i))(\alpha+(1-i))(\alpha+(1+i))}{\alpha\beta\gamma}\]](http://latex.artofproblemsolving.com/4/e/c/4ec33564055263744cec63501763130a8477ac0f.png)
