Answer:
these are the answers
Step-by-step explanation:
(i) True
Reason: Real numbers are any number which can we think about. Thus, every irrational number is a real number.
(ii) False
Reason: A number line may have negative or positive number. Since, no negative can be the square root of a natural number, thus every point on the number line cannot be in the form of √m, where m is a natural number.
(iii) False
Reason: All numbers are real number and non terminating numbers are irrational number. For example 2, 3, 4, etc. are some example of real numbers and these are not irrational.

Steps to show √5 on a number line.
Step: 1 – Draw a number line mm’
Step: 2 – Take OA equal to one inch, i.e. one unit.
Step: 3 – Draw a perpendicular AB equal to one inch (1 inch) on point A.
Step: 4 – Join OB. This OB will be equal to √2
Step: 5 – Draw a line BC perpendicular to OB on point B equal to OA i.e. one inch.
Step: 6 – Join OC. This OC will be equal to √3
Step: 7 – Draw a line CD equal to OA and perpendicular to OC.
Step: 8 – Join OD. This will be √4 i.e. equal to 2.
Step: 9 – Draw ED equal to 1 inch and perpendicular to OD.
Step: 10 – Join OE. This will be equal to √5
Step: 11 – Cut a line segment OF equal to OE on number line. This line segment OF will be equal to √5
See how, OE is equal to √5
Here, OD = 2, DE = 1 and angle ODE = 90º
Thus, according to Pythagoras theorem.
O E = √( O D ² + D E ²)
Or, O E = √ 2 2 + 1 2
Or, O E = √ 4 + 1
Or, O E = √ 5
