The equation is true.

Explanation:

Based on PEMDAS, the question is solved properly.

#color(red)"P"#arentheses
#color(orange)"E"#xponents
#color(green)"M"#ultiply or #color(green)"D"#ivide (left to right)
#color(blue)"A"#dd or #color(blue)"S"#ubtract (left to right)

The first step is parentheses, so solve everything inside them:

#sqrt((-2 + 3)^1 + (1 + 4)^2)#

#sqrt((1)^1 + (5)^2)#

Now solve the exponents:

#sqrt((1)^1 + (5)^2)#

#sqrt(1 + 25)#

There is no multiplication or division, so skip to addition:

#sqrt(1 + 25)#

#sqrt26#

This is the answer that they got, so the answer is true.
