Hola mate..

Here's ur answer..

Answer :

Let us assume the contrary,

i.e \:  \sqrt{3 }  \:  +  \sqrt{5}

Is irrational thus their can be two integers a and b (b ≠0) and a and b are co-prime numbers, so that

  = \sqrt{3 }  \:  +  \sqrt{5}  =  \frac{a}{b}

b \sqrt{3} +  \sqrt{5 }   = a \:  \\   squaring \: on \: both \: sides \:  \\  {b}^{2}  \: ( \sqrt{3}  \:  +  \ \sqrt{5}  ) \:  {a}^{2}(canceling \: the \: roots)  \\  =  {b}^{2} (3 + 5) =  {a}^{2}  \\ 8 {b}^{2}  =  {a}^{2}  \\

This means that 8 divides a^2 and hence 8 divides "a" also.

This means contradicts our earlier assumption that a and b are co-prime, because 8 is at least one common factor of a and b.

Hope this helps u dude ✌
