I Guess you forgot to mention divided by square root _of what_

Anyhow, try this one, assuming you want square root of a times b:

- ----<snip code>----

#include <math.h>

double myFunction(const double a, const double b)
{
  double rv;

  rv = (pow(a,2) + pow(b,2)) / sqrt(a * b);
  return rv;
}

- ----</snip code>----

good luck !
