Hello Mate!

let \: x = 2 +  \sqrt{5 }  \\  {x}^{2}  =  {(2 +  \sqrt{5} )}^{2}  \\  {x}^{2}  = 4 + 5 + 4 \sqrt{5}  \\  \frac{ {x}^{2} - 9 }{4}  =  \sqrt{5}

Here, ( x^2 - 9 )/4 is rational number which is equivalent to root 5 but we arrise at contradiction that root 5 is irratonal. So ,

2 +  \sqrt{5} \: is \: irrational \:  no.

Hope it helps☺!
