Answer:

{(3√5)-2} is an irrational number.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the number is, {(3√5)-2}

Let us assume that the number is  {(3√5)-2} is a rational number.

Then we can write , {(3√5)-2}= a/b  , where b≠0, a≠b , and  a, b∈ R

Now,

{(3√5)-2}= a/b

or, 3\sqrt{5} = a/b+2

or, \sqrt{5}=\frac{(a+2b)}{3b}----(i)

From the above equation (i) we can say that √5 is a rational number.

But, we know that √5 is an irrational number.

This shows that our assumption is contradict .That means  {(3√5)-2} is

not a rational number . that is,  {(3√5)-2} is an irrational number.

Hence the proof.
