Prove that 3"ROOT"2 is irrational
Answers
Correct Question:
Prove that is an irrational Number.
AnswEr:
Let us Consider that is an rational Number.
So, it can be written in the form of
Here, a & b are co- primes and b is not equal to zero.
Such that,
Now, We can see that is irrational Number but
is rational Number.
And, We know that Rational can't be equal to Irrational.
It arises Contradiction because of our wrong Assumption that is an rational Number.
Rational Number are the Numbers which can be expressed in the form of and where, q is not equal to zero.
Correct Question:
Prove that \sf\: 3\sqrt{2}3
2
is an irrational Number.
AnswEr:
Let us Consider that \sf \: 3\sqrt{2}3
2
is an rational Number.
So, it can be written in the form of \sf{a}{b}.ab.
Here, a & b are co- primes and b is not equal to zero.

Such that,
$$:\implies\sf\: 3\sqrt{2} = \dfrac{a}{b}$$
$$:\implies\sf\: \sqrt{2} = \dfrac{a}{3b}$$
$$:\implies\sf\underbrace{\sqrt{2}}_{Irrational\: Number} = \underbrace{\dfrac{a}{3b}}_{Rational\: Number}$$
Now, We can see that $$\sf\red{\sqrt{2}}$$ is irrational Number but $$\sf\red{\dfrac{a}{3b}}$$ is rational Number.
And, We know that Rational can't be equal to Irrational.
It arises Contradiction because of our wrong Assumption that $$\sf\: 3\sqrt{2}$$ is an rational Number.
$$\bold{\underline{\sf{Hence,\;3\sqrt{2}\; is \; an \: irrational\; Number.}}}$$

Rational Number are the Numbers which can be expressed in the form of $$\sf\dfrac{p}{q}$$ and where, q is not equal to zero.
