    I'm pretty rusty at on-paper arithmetic, but I managed to just math out the answer directly in 2 minutes and 18 seconds, compared to the video's 9:30 doing it "simplified":
    11 seconds to hand-multiply 81^2 to get 6561
    15 seconds to hand-multiply 25^2 to get 625
    44 seconds to hand-multiply 14^4 to get 38416
    16 seconds to hand-add 6561+625+38416 and divide by 2 to get 22801
    5 seconds to see that 22801 is close to 225*100, so the square root is close to 15*10 (since 15^2 = 225) = 150.
    Using Newton's method for refining square root guesses (guess(N+1) = 0.5*(guess(N) + A/guess(N)) where A is the number you're trying to square root):
    24 seconds to hand-divide 22801 by 150 to get ~152
    3 seconds to calculate 0.5*(150+152) to get 151
    20 seconds to square 151 (getting 22801) to ensure it's an exact answer
    138 total seconds, or 2 minutes and 18 seconds.

    How to complicate a mental arithmatic problem. The square root nullifies the 2 squared numbers(81 & 25) and reduces 14 to a simple square. Add them up, divide by two and you get 151. So simple and easy.

      Except that the way you got to 151 is wrong so it's entirely coincidental. The radical doesn't distribute like that. Try doing the same thing you did, but replace 81²+25²+14⁴ with 3²+4²+5².
      Using your method:
      √{(3²+4²+5²)/2} =
      (√3²+√4²+√5²)/2 =
      (3+4+5)/2 =
      12/2 =
      6
      You would get an answer of 6. But that is wrong. The correct answer is 5. Here's how the arithmetic plays out:
      √{(3²+4²+5²)/2} =
      √{(9+16+25)/2} =
      √(50/2) =
      √25 =
      5

    *=read as squre root
    ^=read as to the power
    81^2=(9^2)^2=9^4
    Let a=9
    Simillarly
    25^4=(5^2)^2=5^4
    Let b=5
    So 14^4=(a+b)^4
    According to the formula
    (a+b)^4=a^4+b^4+6a^2b^2+4a^3b
    +4ab^3
    The numerator of the question can be written as
    a^4+b^4+(a+b)^4
    a^4+b^4+a^4+b^4+6a^2b^2+4a^3b+
    4ab^3
    2a^4+2b^4+6a^2b^2+4a^3b+4ab^3
    2(a^4 +b^4+3a^2b^2+2a^3b+2ab^3)
    2(a^4+b^4+2a^2b^2+a^2b^2+2a^3b+
    +2ab^3){2(a^4+b^4+2a^2b^2)}+{(ab)^2+2ab(a^2+b^2)}
    2{(a^2+b^2)^2+(ab)^2+2ab(a^2+b^2)}
    2{a^2+b^2+ab}^2
    As per question the denominator is2
    So the expression will be
    *{a^2+b^2+ab}^2
    a^2+b^2+ab
    Now put the value of a, b
    9^2+5^2+(9×5)
    81+25+45
    151(Ans)
    Due to some problem I have skipped few steps....

      original problem had 81^2. 81 = 9^2 so 81^2 = (9^2)^2 = 9^4
      No mistakes were made.

      Well, you would, if your algebra is to a sufficient standard for the exam you are doing (!) and provided you can spot the 2 clever dodges. He does however spend an extraordinary amount of time explaining some of the trivial stuff. And unfortunately I only spotted one of the two dodges, so would probably have struggled to get there !

      No, as per the rules of polynomials , a linear function can only have one value and not two , so (a+b)²^{1/2} = |a+b|
      U could treat it as a rule too
      That √x² = |x| for all x
      Both the domain and range of a square root function is [0,∞)

      @ExquisiteHappiness 19 днів тому

      @@elchile336 Now in order to get that, u should know what a function is
      It's like a combination of numbers, variables and many other
      like f(x) = x² - sinx + t - x
      Here in f(x), the x in the braket shows a particular value for the function 'f' and t is just a constant, now u can put any value of 'x' and and u would get an output denoted by f(x)
      Like, if x = 3
      f(3) = 3² - sin3 + t - 3
      So, for a value of x, u got a value of f(x)
      That is the domain and range , not clear?
      The input 'x' is the domain and 'f(x)' is the range
      All the values u can put as long as the function is defined, it's the domain of the function and range is all the possible values u could get
      For square function
      Let's say
      f(x) = √x
      In the real world, we can only put x from 0 to ∞, because negative numbers inside square roots aren't defined
      and the value of f(x) is also from 0 to ∞, it is never negative( many people make this mistake)
      Soo I hope it's clear to yaa~
