I think you have a mistake in the equation above. I believe it should be
\frac{a}{p}+\frac{b}{q}+\frac{c}{r} = 0

I made that change and was able to get a value of 2i for the expression you want to evaluate. What I did was to square both sides of the equation whose right side is 1 + i. If you work with the other equation, as corrected above, you can substitute it in the other equation to arrive at a simplified result.

Then find value of

\displaystyle\mathbf{\frac{p^2}{a^2}+\frac{q^2}{b^2}+\frac{r^2}{c^2}=}
