please mark as brilliant answer
Step-by-step explanation:
____✨Here ia the answer ✨____
Let us assume that 3 + √5 is a rational number.
Now,
3 + √5 = (a ÷ b)
[Here a and b are co-prime numbers]
√5 = [(a ÷ b) - 3]
√5 = [(a - 3b) ÷ b]
Here, {(a - 3b) ÷ b} is a rational number.
But we know that √5 is a irrational number.
So, {(a - 3b) ÷ b} is also a irrational number.
So, our assumption is wrong.
3 + √5 is a irrational number.
Hence, proved.
