Step-by-step explanation:
let 8-√3 is rational
then
8-√3 =a/b
SOBS
64+3-2(8)(√3)=a²/b²
67-16√3=a²/b²
16√3=67-a²/b²
√3=1/16[67-a²/b²]
since a irrational cannot be equal to rational
our assumption that given number is rational is wrong
Hence, it is irrational

Answer:
let 8-√3 be a rational no. R
8-√3=R
-√3 =R-8
√3 = -R +8
here, -R+8 is a rational no. but √3 is an irrational no. and a rational no. can never be equal to an irrational no.
so, our assumption is wrong
8-√3 is an irrational no.
