To prove :-3-√5 is irrational.
Proof:-
3+ √5
Let us assume 3+√5 be rational number.
Now,
3+√5 -3 (subtracting rational from rational )
now it's √5 which is irrational.
So, 3+√5 is irrational.

√5 is irrational proof.
√5 = a ÷ b (a and b are co prime numbers)
=>b√5=a
Now, squaring on both sides. We get ,
=>5b² = a².........{1}
=>b²=a²÷5
Hence 5 devides a².
5 devides a also.
Now,
a =5c (here c is any integer)
Sq. on both sides
=>a²=25c²
=>5b²=25c² (from 1.)
=> b² =5c²
=>c²=b²÷5
Here 5 devides b²
and 5 devides b also,
=> a & b are Co prime numbers & 5 devide both of them .
Hence √5 is irrational number.
So proved.
