Step-by-step explanation:
Let us assume that (2 + √3) is rational and is in its simplest form a/b, where b is not equal to 0.
Now, 2+√3 = a/b
2 = a/b – √3
2 = (a–√3) ÷ 3
HERE, 2 IS RATIONAL BUT (a –√3)/b IS IRRATIONAL
AND WE KNOW THAT NONE OF THE RATIONAL NO IS EQUAL TO AN IRRATIONAL NO.
HENCE, PROVED THAT 2+√3 IS IRRATIONAL
