Answer:
Q.1 )
Irrational
Q.2 )
Rational
Q.3 )
Irrational
Step-by-step explanation:
REASON :
Q.1 )
LET US ASSUME THAT 3 + ROOT 5 IS A RATIONAL NUMBER .
3 + ROOT5 = p/q where q is not equal to 0 and p and q are integers .
3 +ROOT 5 = a / b where a and b are co - prime
Therefore ,
Root 5 = a / b - 3
But we know that root 5 is an irrational number .
This contradicys the fact that 3 + root 5 is a rational number. This is because of our wrong assumption that 3 + root5 is a rational number .
REASON
Q.2 )
Therefore it is a rational number .
REASON
Q.3 )
Let us assume that pie - 2 is rational .
therefore ,
pie - 2 = p / q where p and q are integers and q os mot equal to 0.
pie -2 = a / b where a and b are co -prime
pie = a / b + 2
But we know that pie is a irrational number .
This contradicts the fact that pie - 2 is a rational number .
This is because of our wrong assumption that pie - 2 is an rational number.
Irrational number .
