Answer:
let we first assume that √5 is a rational number..
and 3-√5 is integer and in the form of p/q where q is not equal to 0.
Now,
3-√5 =p/q
√5=p/q+3
and now
p/q+3 is a integer so √5 is rational..
but we know that √5 is irrational so our assumptions is wrong and 3-√5 is irrational...
Hence proved...
