Step-by-step explanation:
Let Us Assume That Root 7 And Root 5 Are Rational
Then Root 7 +Root 5 = A/b Where A And B Are Co Primes
Then Square On Both Sides
(Root 7 +Root 5)square = A /Bwhole Square
2xroot 35= a/b whole square -12
root 35 = 1/2(a/b whole square -12)
RHS is rational
but root 35 is irrational as root 7 and root 7 are irrational
this contradiction has arisen due to our incorrect assumption
thus root 7 +root 5 is irrational
hence the proof

√7= 2.646...
√2=1.4142135623730951...
√3=1.7320508075688772...
these are non terminating non repeating decimal expansion that's why these are irrational
¯\_(ツ)_/¯
