(sqrt4 + sqrt3)(sqrt2 + sqrt4)
-> sqrt4*sqrt2 - sqrt4^2 + sqrt3*sqrt2 - sqrt3*sqrt4
2*sqrt2 + sqrt3*sqrt2 - sqrt3*2 - 4
2^1*2^1/2 + sqrt6 - 2sqrt3 -4
2^3/2 + sqrt6 - 2sqrt3 - 4
-->cuberoot4 + sqrt6 - 2sqrt3 - 4

Start with the given expression.

Now let's FOIL the expression.

Remember, when you FOIL an expression, you follow this procedure:

Multiply the First terms:.

Multiply the Outer terms:.

Multiply the Inner terms:.

Multiply the Last terms:.

Now collect every term to make a single expression.

So FOILs to .

In other words, .
