\bf To\ prove:\ \tt 2\ +\ \sqrt{3}\ is\ an\ irrational\ number.\\\\\\Let's\ assume\ that\ 2\ +\ \sqrt{3}\ is\ a\ rational\ number.\\\\\\2\ +\ \sqrt{3}\ =\ \dfrac{a}{b},\ where\ a\ and\ b\ are\ co-prime\ integers\ and\ b\ \ne\ 0.\\\\\\2\ +\ \sqrt{3}\ =\ \dfrac{a}{b}\\\\\\\sqrt{3}\ =\ \dfrac{a}{b}\ -\ 2\\\\\\\sqrt{3}\ =\ \dfrac{a\ -\ 2b}{b}\\\\\\Since\ a\ and\ b\ are\ integers,\ and\ \dfrac{a\ -\ 2b}{b}\ is\ a\ rational\ number,\\\\\\\implies\ \sqrt{3}\ is\ also\ rational.\\\\\\

\tt This\ contradicts\ the\ fact\ that\ \sqrt{3}\ is\ irrational.\\\\\\This\ contradiction\ has\ arisen\ due\ to\ our\ wrong\ assumption.\\\\\\Therefore,\ our\ assumption\ is\ wrong.\\\\\\2\ +\ \sqrt{3}\ is\ an\ irrational\ number.
