Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
DEAR HUMAN BEING,
LET US ASSUME THAT ROOT(2 + ROOT 3) BE RATIONAL NUMBER.
I.E ROOT(2 + ROOT 3) = A\B , WHERE , "A" AND "B" ARE CO PRIMES AND B
NOT EQUAL TO 0.
= 2 + ROOT 3 = A^2\B^2 (SQUARING BOTH SIDES)
= ROOT 3 = A^2\B^2 - 2
= ROOT 3 = A^2-2B^2\B^2.
AS ON L.H.S , THE NUMBER IS RATIONAL , THUS , ROOT 3 SHOULD ALSO BE RATIONAL NUMBER.
=BUT THIS CONTRADICTS THE FACT THAT ROOT 3 IS AN IRRATIONAL NUMBER.
= THUS , OUR ASSUMPTION WAS WRONG..
= ROOT(2+ ROOT 3) IS AN IRRATIONAL NUMBER.
