Đặt vế trái BĐT cần chứng minh là P, ta có:
\(\dfrac{ab}{a^2+b^2}+\dfrac{bc}{b^2+c^2}+\dfrac{ca}{c^2+a^2}=\dfrac{1}{c\left(a^2+b^2\right)}+\dfrac{1}{a\left(b^2+c^2\right)}+\dfrac{1}{b\left(c^2+a^2\right)}\)
\(\ge\dfrac{9}{a\left(b^2+c^2\right)+b\left(c^2+a^2\right)+c\left(a^2+b^2\right)}\ge\dfrac{9}{2\left(a^3+b^3+c^3\right)}\)
\(\Rightarrow P\ge a^3+b^3+c^3+\dfrac{9}{2\left(a^3+b^3+c^3\right)}\ge3\sqrt[3]{\left(\dfrac{a^3+b^3+c^3}{2}\right)^2.\dfrac{9}{2\left(a^3+b^3+c^3\right)}}\)
\(=3\sqrt[3]{\dfrac{9\left(a^3+b^3+c^3\right)}{8}}\ge3\sqrt[3]{\dfrac{27abc}{8}}=\dfrac{9}{2}\)
Dấu "=" xảy ra khi \(a=b=c=1\)
