To prove = 2√3 is an irrational number.
Let us assume to the contrary that 2√3 is a rational number.
We can write it in the form of a/b where a and b are rational nos. and b ≠ 0
2√3= a/b
√3= a/2b
This shows that √
3 is a rational no.
But we know that √3 is irrational.
This is a contradiction to our assumption . Thus our assumption is wrong .
Therefore,2√3 is irrational .
