Hey friend✋! here is your answer
_____________________________
◆To prove--- 6-5√2 is irrational
✅Proof- let assume 6-5√2 is rational
so,
✔️6-5√2=a/b { where a & b are co-prime }
✔️-5√2=a/b-6
✔️Take LCM on RHS
✅-5√2=a-6/b
✔️-√2=a-6/5b
◆Here -√2 & a-6/5b are two rational number but the fact is -√2 is irrational number.
✅This contradiction arises due to our wrong assumption. So 6-5√2 is irrational
______Hence proved_________
⭐️Hope it helps you⭐️
