YOUR QUESTION SHOULD WE TO PROVE ROOT 6 IS IRRATIONAL.
LET US ASSUME THAT
IS A RATIONAL NUMBER.
THEREFORE ,
,WHERE P AND Q ARE COPRIMES.
SQUARING BOTH SIDES,
___(1)
~2 DIVIDES p^2
~2 DIVIDES p
(because if a prime number can divide square of a number hence it can divide the number too)
THEREFORE,
,FOR SOME INTEGER c
____(2)
FROM (1) AND (2),
~6 divides q^2
~6 divides q
(because if a prime number can divide square of a number then it can also divide the number)
THEREFORE,3 DIVIDES p AND q BOTH WHICH IS THE CONTRADICTION TO OUR PREASSUMPTION.
THEREFORE,ROOT3 IS IRRATIONAL.
