sSol :
Suppose 
√3 - √2 is rational .

Let 
√3 - √2 = r       where r is a rational.

∴  (
√3 - √2)2 = r

∴  2 + 3 - 2√6 = r2

∴√6 = (5 - r2 ) / 2

Now , LHS = √6 is an irrational number .

RHS =  (5 - r
2 ) / 2  But rational number cannot be equal to an irrational.

∴our supposition is wrong.

∴ 
√3 - √2 is irrational .
