Let's assume 3+2root 5 is a rational number.
Then we know rational number is in the form p/q
Then 3+2 root 5= p/q
=2root5=p-3q/q
= root 5=p-3q/2q
So p-3q/2q is a rational number so root 5 is also rational but we have already prove that root 5 is a irrational number. So our assumption is incorrect that 3+root 5 is a rational number so we conclude that 3+2 root 5 is an irrational number.
Hence Proved.
