Answer:
2+ root 3/5 is irrational number.
Step-by-step explanation:
solution :
to prove 2 + root 3 / 5 is irrational , let us assume that 2 + root 3 / 5 is rational number .
2+root 3/5 = a/b; b not equal to 0 and a & b are integers.
= 2b+root 3 = 5
= root 3 = 5b-2b
= root 3 = 5a-2b/b
since a and b are integers, so 5a - 2b will also be an integer .
so 5a-2b/b will be rational .
which means root 3 is also rational .
but we know root 3 is irrational number. (given)
Thus, a contradiction has risen because of incorrect assumptions.
Thus, 2+root 3/5 is irrational number.
