Assume that 3+2
5
is rational. Then,
3+2
5
=
b
a
5
=
2b
a−3b
This gives that
2b
a−3b
is rational but
5
is an irrational number, therefore, the assumption is wrong.
Hence, 3+2
5
is irrational

Step-by-step explanation:
Assume that 3+2√5 is rational
therefore: 3+2√5 =x
2√5 =x-3
√5= x-3/2
therefore √5 is irrational and x-3/2 is rational.
therefore a number can't be rational as well as irrational.
Hence proved,3+2√5 is irrational.
