Answer:
let assume that(√2+√3)
√2+√3=a/b
=√3=a/b-√2
(√3) ²=(a/b-√2) ²
3=a²/b²-2a/b√2+2
2a/b√2=a²/b²-1
=√2=a²-b²/2ab
since a and b are integers, so a²-b²/2ab is rational.
thus, √2 is also rational.
but this contradict the fact that √2 is rational
so our assumptions is incorrect.
hence√2+√3 is irrational
