Question

2 ) Prove that 5 - √3 is an irrational number ?​

Answer 1

Answer:

Hello mate..

Step-by-step explanation:

Hey dear here is your answer ^_^

⭐Let us assume that 5 - root 3 is rational. Then it can be written in the form

5 - root3 = p/q

or 5 - p/q = root3

It implies root3 is a rational number [Since 5 - p/q are rationals]

But this contradicts to the fact that root 3 is irrational. Hence our supposition was wrong. Therefore 5 - root 3 is irrational.

CHEERZ!

Hope it helped you out ⭐^_^⭐

Thanks ⭐(^^)⭐

Answer 2

let us assum that 5-√3 is rational number so we can find two integers a , b. Where a and b are two co - primes number. So it arise contradiction due to our wrong assumption that 5 - √3 is rational number. Hence, 5 -√3 is irrational number.
