<s>[INST] if $abc=1$, then $a^2+b^2+c^2\ge a+b+c$ This is supposed to be an application of AM-GM inequality.

if $abc=1$, then the following holds true: $a^2+b^2+c^2\ge a+b+c$

First of all,
$a^2+b^2+c^2\ge 3$
by a direct application of AM-GM.Also,we have
$a^2+b^2+c^2\ge ab+bc+ca$
Next,we consider the expression
$(a+1)(b+1)(c+1)=a+b+c+ab+bc+ca+abc\le a+b+c+a^2+b^2+c^2+1$
but that hardly helps.I know that
$3(a^2+b^2+c^2)\ge (a+b+c)^2$
From the first derived inequality,we know that the left hand side of the above inequality is greater than or equal to 9.But I can't see how that can be used here.I know that we can get $a+b+c\ge 3$ using AM-GM but that does not take me a step closer to finding the solution(from what I can understand).Also,
$a^3+b^3+c^3\ge a^2b+b^2c+c^2a$
$(a+b+c)[(a-b)^2+(b-c)^2+(c-a)^2]\ge a^2b+b^2c+c^2a$
A hint will be appreciated at this point.
 [/INST] Use the fact that 
$$a^2+a^2+a^2+b+c \geq5\sqrt[5]{a^2.a^2.a^2.b.c}=5\sqrt[5]{a^6bc}=5a$$ since $abc=1$
Similarly, we get two more results, and adding them we get:
$$3(a^2+b^2+c^2)+2(a+b+c) \geq 5(a+b+c) $$ which gives us our result.
$$a^2+b^2+c^2 \geq a+b+c$$
$$Q.E.D.$$
