Answer:
let us assume that -√7 is an rational number
Step-by-step explanation:
-√7=a/b a& b are coprime number
-√7b=a
squaring on both sides
7b2=a2
7 divides a2
7 divides a
put a as 7c
7b2=49c2
b2=7c2
7 divides b2
7 divides b
a & b have same common factor
but this contradict the facts that a& b are coprime number
our assumptions is wrong
so -√7 is an irrational number
