Correct Answer: 1
Solution :
Given: $(x^{b+c})^{b–c}(x^{c+a})^{c–a}(x^{a+b})^{a–b}$ $(x\neq 0)$
= $(x^{(b+c)×(b–c)})(x^{(c+a)(c–a)})(x^{(a+b)×(a–b)})$
= $(x^{(b^{2}–c^{2})})(x^{(c^{2}–a^{2})})(x^{(a^{2}–b^{2})})$
= $x^{(b^{2}–c^{2}+c^{2}–a^{2}+a^{2}–b^{2})}$
= $x^{0}$
= 1
Hence, the correct answer is 1.
