Step-by-step explanation:
1.let us assume it is a rational number
2.√5+√2=a/b(where a,b are composite numbers)
3.squaring on both sides we get (√5+√2)2=(a/b)2
4.5+2+2√5√2=a2/b2
5.7+2√10=a2/b2
6.2√10=a2/b2-7
7.an irrational = rational is false
8.therefore √5+√2 is irrational hence proved
note: here a2 and b2 means a square and b square
