Question:medium
If the operation $\oplus$ is defined by $a \oplus b = a^2 + b^2$ for all real numbers $a$ and $b$, then $(2 \oplus 3) \oplus 4 =$
If the operation $\oplus$ is defined by $a \oplus b = a^2 + b^2$ for all real numbers $a$ and $b$, then $(2 \oplus 3) \oplus 4 =$
Show Hint
Always treat custom binary operations exactly like a function $f(a, b)$. Evaluate the innermost "function call" first before moving outward.
