Answer:
Given :3+2 root 5
to prove:3+2root 5is an irrational number
prove
let us assume that 3+2root 5 is a rationale number
so
it can be written in from a/b
solving 3+2root5 =a/b
we get
>2root 5 a/b-3
>2root 5 =(a-3b)/6
>root5 =(a-3b)/2b
this show that ( a-3b) / 2bis a rational number
but
we know that root 5 is a irrational so it contradiction assumptions of number is incorrect
3+2root is a rational number
3+2 root 5 is an irrational number
