Prove that 1÷ (2 + √3) is an irrational number
Answers
Answer:
Let 1/2+√3 be a rational number.
A rational number can be written in the form of p/q where p,q are integers.
1/2+√3=p/q
√3=p/q-1/2
√3=(2p-q)/2q
p,q are integers then (2p-q)/2q is a rational number.
Then √3 is also a rational number.
But this contradicts the fact that √3 is an irrational number.
So,our supposition is false.
Therefore,1/2+√3 is an irrational number
