Answer:

assume that √3 is rational

√3=a/b

square on both sides

3=a^2/b^2

3b^2=a^2

therefore 3 divides a^2 and a

put a=3c

3b^2=(3c)^2

3b^2=9c^2

b^2=3c^2

therefore, 3divides b^2 and b

therefore 3 is the common factor of a and b

but we assume that 1 is the common factor of a and b

by contradiction

√3 is irrational....
