6+√2 is irrational
Let us assume 6+√2 is rational. Then it can be expressed in the form p/q , where p and q are co-prime.
Then, 6+√2= p/q
= √2 = p/q – 6
= √2 = p – 6q / q -----(p,q,−6 are integers)
p – 6q / q is rational .
But, 2 is irrational.
This contradiction is due to our incorrect assumption that 6+ 2 is rational
Hence, 6+ 2 is irrational.
