Answer:
So all 's prime factors are found among 's, and is an integer. This is a contradiction since 5 is not the square of an integer. This proof generalizes in a natural way to show that it is not possible for any integer that is not a square to have a rational square root

Answer:
let we using contary to supposing √5 is rational number
then their exit two uniqe integers
let √5=a/b (there coprime of a and b is 1 )
(√5)² = (a/b)²
5= a²/b²
5b²=a²
5divides b²
5divides b
a=5c for some integers c
(5c)²=(a)²
25c² =5b²
5c²=b²
5divides b²
5divides b
there is 5 is common factors of a and b so our contradiction is wrong
Hence √5 is an irrational number
