How do you multiply (5+2sqrt6)(2+sqrt6)(5+2√6)(2+√6)? Algebra Radicals and Geometry Connections Multiplication and Division of Radicals 1 Answer Alan P. Apr 7, 2015 In general (a+b)*(c+d) = (a+b)c + (a+b)d(a+b)⋅(c+d)=(a+b)c+(a+b)d So we can re-write (5+2sqrt(6))(2+sqrt(6))(5+2√6)(2+√6) as (5+2sqrt(6))(2) + (5+sqrt(6))(sqrt(6))(5+2√6)(2)+(5+√6)(√6) = (10 + 4sqrt(6)) + (5sqrt(6) + 6)=(10+4√6)+(5√6+6) = 16 + 9sqrt(6)=16+9√6 Answer link Related questions How do you simplify \frac{2}{\sqrt{3}}2√3?
