14)
(I) 5+√2
Let us assume √2 is a rational
√2=p/q(where p and q are co-prime)
squaring on both the sides
(√2)^2=p^2/q^2
2=p^2/q^2
2q^2=p^2
q^2=p^2/2
√2 divides p^2 and p also
Let P=2m
2q^2=(2m)^2
2q^2=4m^2
m^2=2q^2/4
m^2=q^2/2
√2 divides q^2 and q also
It is contradiction
Our assumption is wrong
Hence, √2 is irrational
5+√2 is irrational because the sum of rational and irrational is irrational.
Hence PROVED………

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
5+✓2 is irrational number.
Let us assume 5+✓2 is rational
5+✓2=a/b
(Where a,b are co-integers and b is not = to 0)
5+✓2=a/b
✓2=a/b-5
✓2=a/b-5/1
✓2=a-5b/b
This contradicts that 5+✓2 is irrational.
But our assumption is wrong.
Therefore,5+✓2 is an irrational number.
Hope this helps you guys
Thank you
