Answer:

Heya Here's the required Answer mate

Given:

  • 3 + 4√5

To prove:

  • 3 + 4√5 is an irrational number.

Proof:

  • Let us assume that 3 + 4√5 is a rational number.

  • So, it can be written in the form a/b
  • 3 + 4√5 = a/b

  • Here a and b are coprime numbers and b ≠ 0

  • Solving 3 + 4√5 = a/b we get,
  • =>4√5 = a/b – 3
  • =>4√5 = (a-3b)/b
  • =>√5 = (a-3b)/4b

  • This shows (a-3b)/4b is a rational number. But we know that √5 is an irrational number.

  • So, it contradicts our assumption. Our assumption of 3 + 4√5 is a rational number is incorrect.

  • 3 + 4√5 is an irrational number

Hope it helps bete
