Answer:
Hey mate!! Here is the proof.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let, 5 - 2√3 be a rational number.
Therefore, 5 - 2√3 = [ where p and q are integer , q ≠ 0 and q and p are co- prime number ]
=> - 2√3 = -5
=>- 2√3 = p -
=> √3 = p -
We know that p/q is a rational number.
.°. √3 is also a rational number.
This contradicts our assumption
5 - 2√3 is an irrational number
