Step-by-step explanation:
Let assume that 3 + √5 is a rational no.
Now ,
3 + √5 = a/b [ here, a & b are co-prime no. ]
=> √5 = a/b - 3
=> √5 = (a - 3b)/b
Here,
( a - 3b )/b is a rational no.
But,
we know that √5 is an irrational number.
So,
(a - 3b)/b is also an irrational no.
So, Our assumption is wrong .
Hence,
3 - √5 is an irrational no.
