Step-by-step explanation:
Let 3+2√5, if possible, be a rational number equal to x
Then,
(3+2√5)² = x²
=> 3² + 2×3×2√5 +(2√5)² = x²
=> 9+12√5+20 = x²
=> 29 + 12√5 =x²
=>12√5= x²-29
Now,
x is rational
=> x² is rational
=> x²-29 is rational
=> 12√5 is rational
But, 12√5 is irrational.
Thus, our assumption that (3+2√5) is rational is wrong.
