Answer:

→ let take that 3+2√5 is rational number

→ so, we can write this answer as

⇒3+2√5 = a/b

Here a & b use two coprime number and

b ≠ 0.

⇒2 \sqrt{5}  =  \frac{a}{b}

⇒2 \sqrt{5}  =  \frac{a - 3b}{b}

 \sqrt{5}  =  \frac{a - 3b}{2b}

Here a and b are integer so

 \frac{a - 3b}{2b}

is a rational number

so

√5 should be rational number but

√5 is a irrational number so it is contradict

- Hence 3+2√5 is irrational.
