hope my answer will help you
Step-by-step explanation:
let us assume √3+√5 are rational no.
then they exist 2 no. such that
√3+√5 = a/b
√5 = a/b - √3
squaring on both sides
5 = a²/b² -2a√3/b +3
2 +2a√3/b = a²/b²
2+√3 = a²/b² x b/2a
2+√3 = a/2b
since a/2b is a rational no the 2+√3 is also a rational no.
but it is false because we know √3 is irrational no.
this is because of our wrong assumption that is
√3+√5 are rational no.
so √3+√5 are irrational no.
