Hi friend,
Here is your answer,
_____________________________________________________________
Let √2 + √3 = a/b where a/b is a rational number.
√2 + √3 = a/b
(√2 + √3)² = a²/b² {Squaring both sides}
2 + 3 + 2√6 = a²/b²
5 + 2√6 = a²/b²
2√6 = (a²/b²)-5
a,b and 5 are rational numbers.
So, 2√6 is also rational number.
This contradicts the fact that √6 is irrational.
Therefore √2 + √3 is irrational.
