Answer:
Let us assum that 7root5 is an irrational number ,say r
7root5=r
root5=r/7
Therefore r and 7 are rational number
r/7 is a rational number
This show that
root5 is rational number
But we know that root5 is an irrational number
Therefore our assumption was wrong
Hence 7root5 is an irrational number
