Answer:

Hey mate!! Here is the proof.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let,  5 - 2√3 be a rational number.

Therefore, 5 - 2√3 = \frac{P}{Q}[ where p and q are integer , q ≠ 0 and q and p are co- prime number ]

=> - 2√3 = \frac{P}{Q} -5

=>- 2√3 = p - \frac{5Q}{Q}

=> √3 = p -   \frac{5Q}{-2Q}

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
