Evaluate $$\sqrt {20} + \sqrt {12} + \root 3 \of {729} - \frac{4}{{\sqrt 5 - \sqrt 3 }} - \sqrt {81} $$

Answer & Solution
Correct Answer: Option C
$$\eqalign{ & \sqrt {20} + \sqrt {12} + \root 3 \of {729} - \frac{4}{{\sqrt 5 - \sqrt 3 }} - \sqrt {81} \cr & \Rightarrow 2\sqrt 5 + 2\sqrt 3 + 9 - \left( {\frac{4}{{\sqrt 5 - \sqrt 3 }} \times \frac{{\sqrt 5 + \sqrt 3 }}{{\sqrt 5 + \sqrt 3 }}} \right) - 9 \cr & \Rightarrow 2\sqrt 5 + 2\sqrt 3 + 9 - \left( {\frac{{4\left( {\sqrt 5 + \sqrt 3 } \right)}}{2}} \right) - 9 \cr & \Rightarrow 2\sqrt 5 + 2\sqrt 3 + 9 - 2\sqrt 5 - 2\sqrt 3 - 9 \cr & \Rightarrow 0 \cr} $$
