let us suppose that root √3 + 4 is a rational number
√3+4=a/b
√3=a/b-4
√3=a-4b/b
but a and b are rational numbers
therefore a-4b/b is also rational
therefore√3 is also rational
but this contradict our fact that √3 is a irrational number
there fore √3+4 is an irrational number
√3+4=a/b
√3=a/b-4
√3=a-4b/b
but a and b are rational numbers
therefore a-4b/b is also rational
therefore√3 is also rational
