Given 5-√5
To Prove ;
5-√5 is irrational
Solution;
Let us assume that 5-√5 is rational
A rational is that can be expressed in the form f p/q where q should not be zero
5-√5 =p/q
5-p/q=√5
Since p and q are integers so according to this √5 should be rational but it is not so our assumption is wrong
Hence 5-√5 is irrational
