Step-by-step explanation:
let 3+2√5 is a rational number.
3+2√5 = p/q (where p and q are integers and q is not equal to 0)
2√5 = p/q - 3
√5 = p - 6 / 2q
p-6/2q is a rational number i.e. √5 is also a rational number but we know that √5 is a irrational number.
This shows that our assumption is incorrect.
So, 3+2√5 is an irrational number
