Question

. Prove that 2 + V6 is an irrational number.​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

let 2+V6 is rational

so 2+V6 = p÷q where p and q are coprimes

=> V6 = p÷q -2

=> V6 = p-2q÷q

=> V6 is rational [ p and q are integers]

this contradicts the fact that V6 is riirational

so 2+V6 is irrational.

hence proved
