To give a different point of view on @dan_fulea's answer, note that even Boolean satisfiability is NP-complete. If you include some transcendentals it isn't solvable at all. So it's not surprising that even with better algorithms some combination of $\sqrt{stuff}$ and polynomials might be hard to solve in this fashion.
