Reorder, we get:

( 60 3 7 ) ( 60 + 3 7 ) ( 60 3 7 ) ( 60 3 7 ) (\sqrt{60}-3\sqrt{7})(\sqrt{60}+3\sqrt{7})(\sqrt{60}-3\sqrt{7})(\sqrt{60}-3\sqrt{7})

( ( 60 3 7 ) ( 60 + 3 7 ) ) 2 ((\sqrt{60}-3\sqrt{7})(\sqrt{60}+3\sqrt{7}))^2

The expression above is a conjugate binomial to square.

( 60 3 7 ) ( 60 + 3 7 ) = ( 60 ) 2 ( 3 7 ) 2 = ( 60 63 ) = 3 \Rightarrow (\sqrt{60}-3\sqrt{7})(\sqrt{60}+3\sqrt{7})=(\sqrt{60})^2-(3\sqrt{7})^2=(60-63)=-3

( ( 60 3 7 ) ( 60 + 3 7 ) ) 2 = ( 3 ) 2 = 9 \therefore ((\sqrt{60}-3\sqrt{7})(\sqrt{60}+3\sqrt{7}))^2=(-3)^2=\boxed{9}

Really good solution ! I like it !

We now that, if a , b R a 2 b 2 = ( a b ) 2 a, b \in \mathbb{R}\\ a^2b^2=(ab)^2 \ ( 60 + 3 7 ) 2 ( 60 3 7 ) 2 = ( ( 60 + 3 7 ) ( 60 3 7 ) ) 2 (\sqrt{60}+3\sqrt{7})^2 (\sqrt{60}-3\sqrt{7})^2=((\sqrt{60}+3\sqrt{7})(\sqrt{60}-3\sqrt{7}))^2 \ ( ( 60 ) 2 ( 3 7 ) 2 ) 2 = ( 60 63 ) 2 ((\sqrt{60})^2-(3\sqrt{7})^2)^2=(60-63)^2 ( 3 ) 2 = 9 \Longrightarrow (-3)^2=9

WHAT, But look (\sqrt 60 + 3\sqrt7)^2 is 60 + 21 and the other equation is 60 - 21, then that is 81 * 39!

(a+b)^2 (a-b)^2=a^4+b^4-2ab So (√60)^4+(3√7)^4- 2(√60)^2(3√7)^2. =9

Did the same!

(a+b)^2 (a-b)^2

=a^4+b^4-2ab

so, (√60)^4+(3√7)^4- 2(√60)^2(3√7)^2. =9

((√60)²-3²(√7)²)² = (60-9*7)² = (-3)² = 9
