Solution
Verified by Toppr

Let the triangle be ABC. A,B,C are vertices represented by z1,z2 andz3 respectively.
Since the triangle is equilateral, AB=BC=CA and A=B=C=π3
z1z2z3z2=z3z1z2z1

(z1z2)(z2z1)=(z3z1)(z3z2)

z1z2z21z22+z2z1=z23z2z3z1z3+z1z2

z21+z22+z23=z1z2+z2z3+z3z1 ----------(1)

z21+z22+z23z1z2z2z3z3z1=0

2(z21+z22+z23z1z2z2z3z3z1)=0 [ Multiplying equation by 2 ]

(z1z2)2+(z2z3)2+(z3z1)2=0 ---------------(2)

Also
z1z2z3z2=z3z1z2z1=z2z3z1z3

From the above equation we get the following equations
(z3z1)(z3z2)=(z2z1)(z1z2)
(z1z2)(z1z3)=(z2z3)(z3z2)
(z2z1)(z2z3)=(z3z1)(z1z3)

Adding these three equations,
(z3z1)(z3z2)+(z1z2)(z1z3)+(z2z1)(z2z3)=(z1z2)2(z2z3)2(z3z1)2=0 (From (2))

Divide by (z1z2)(z2z3)(z3z1)
1(z1z2)+1(z2z3)+1(z3z1)=0

1(z1z2)+1(z2z3)+1(z3z1)=0 -----(3)
