Let A=[aij]A=\left[a_{i j}\right]A=[aij​] be a matrix of order 3×33 \times 33×3, with aij=(2)i+ja_{i j}=(\sqrt{2})^{i+j}aij​=(2​)i+j. If the sum of all the elements in the third row of A2A^2A2 is α+β2,α,β∈Z\alpha+\beta \sqrt{2}, \alpha, \beta \in \mathbf{Z}α+β2​,α,β∈Z, then α+β\alpha+\betaα+β is equal to :
