Detailed Solution

 log(a+c)+log(b+c)=2log(a+b)
 (a+c)(b+c)=(a+b)2
                    ab+c(a+b)+c2=(a+b)2                                            (1)
Also,  c=2aba+b2ab=c(a+b)
              2ab+2c(a+b)+2c2=2(a+b)2                                 (2)
From (1) and (2), 
 c(a+b)+2c(a+b)+2c2=2(a+b)2
 2(a+b)23c(a+b)2c2=0
               a+b=3c±9c2+16c24=3c±5c4=2c  or  c2
      a+b=2c      (    a,b,c>0)
