Step-by-step explanation:
Since both q and r are odd, we can write q=2m−1 and r=2n−1 for some m,n∈N.
We note that the lefthand side of this equation is even,
while the righthand side of this equation is odd, which is a contradiction.
Therefore there exists no rational number r such that r2=3. Hence the root of 3 is an irrational number

Let us assume that 3−3 is a rational number
Then. there exist coprime integers p, q,q=0 such that
3−3=qp
=>3=3−qp
Here, 3−qp is a rational number, but 3 is an irrational number.
But, an irrational cannot be equal to a rational number.This is a contradiction.
Thus, our assumption is wrong.
Therefore 3−3 is an irrational number.
