 _  _    _
Ö5(Ö5 + Ö2)
                _
Distribute the Ö5
 _  _    _  _
Ö5·Ö5 + Ö5·Ö2

Multiply underneath the radicals
 ___    ___
Ö5·5 + Ö5·2

Write 5·5 as 5² and write 5·2 as 10
 __    __
Ö5² + Ö10

The square root of the square of 5 takes 
away the square and the square root, so
you just have 5. You end up with
     __
5 + Ö10
