Jan 6, 2023 at 17:06 comment added mme Choose a generic ray from 0 to infinity, one which is transverse to F and intersects S^{n-1} in exactly one point p. Taking F^{-1}(r) gives a 1-manifold whose boundary consists of F^{-1}(0), f_1^{-1)(p), and f_2^{-1}(p) all oriented appropriately. After working out signs your formula follows from the fact that an oriented boundary of a compact 1-manifold is zero.
