AnswEr:

Let us Consider that \sf\dfrac{\:\:1}{\sqrt{2}} is an rational number.

Therefore, it can be written in the form of \sf\dfrac{a}{b} where a & b are co - Primes and b is not Equal to zero.

Such that,

:\implies\sf\: \dfrac{\:\:1}{\sqrt{2}} = \dfrac{a}{b}

:\implies\sf\: \sqrt{2} = \dfrac{a}{b}

Here, we can see that \sf\dfrac{a}{b} is an irrational number and is equal to \sf\sqrt{2}.

It arises contradiction because of our wrong assumption that \sf\sqrt{2} is rational.

\bold{\underline{\sf{\red{Hence,\dfrac{\:\:1}{\sqrt{2}} \: is \: an \: irrational\: number.}}}}
