Step-by-step explanation:

assume 2+√3 as irrastional

•2+√3=a/b

2-a/b=√3

√3=a/b-2

√3=a-2b/b

a and b are positive integer

a-2b/b is rational

√3 is rational

but we know that √3 is irrational

hence, 2+√3 is irrational

Hence proved,

\sf \: let \: us \: assume \: 2 +  \sqrt{3}  \: as \: rational

\sf2 +  \sqrt{3}  =  \frac{a}{b}

\sf2 -  \frac{a}{b}  =  -  \sqrt{3}  \: or \:  \sqrt{3}  =  \frac{a}{b}  - 2

\sf \sqrt{3}  =  \frac{a}{b}  - 2

\sf \sqrt{3}  = a -  \frac{2b}{b}

\sf \: a \: and \: b \: are \: positive \: integers

\sf \: a -  \frac{2b}{b}  \: is \: rational

\sf \:  \sqrt{3} \:  is \: rational

\sf \: but \: we \: know \: that \:  \sqrt{3}  \: is \: irrational

\sf2 +  \sqrt{3}  \: is \: irrational
