Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
In order to prove root 5 is irrational using contradiction we use the following steps:
Assume that √5 is rational.
Write √5 = p/q
Now both sides are squared, simplified and a constant value is substituted.
It is found that 5 is a factor of the numerator and the denominator which contradicts the property of a rational number.
