Let the assume that √5 is a rational number.
We know that the rational number are in the form of p/q from where.
P, q are intezers.
so, √5 = p/q
p = √5q.
we know that 'p' is a rational number. so √5 q must be rational since it equals to p.
but it doesnt occurs with √5 since its not an intezer
therefore, p =/= √5q
therefore, p =/= √5qthis contradicts the fact that √5 is an irrational number.
this contradicts the fact that √5 is an irrational number
this contradicts the fact that √5 is an irrational numberhence our assumption is wrong and √5 is an irrational number.
Hope it's helps you
