HP Prime & HP 49G Problem with square roots
Some (irrelevant to this thread) calculations produced these two expressions:

√1201+√(70+2*√1201)

&

√(35+2*√6)+√(1236-2*√6+2*√(42035-2402*√6))

which should be equal. I have checked with the Longfloat Lib on the HP 49G, & the two are equal to many decimal positions, but are they in fact exactly equal?

Assistance appreciated.
