Let us assume

1/√2 is rational.

So we can write this number as

→1√2 = ab  ---- (1)

Here, a and b are two co-prime numbers and b is not equal to zero.

Simplify the equation (1) multiply by 2 both sides, we get

1= b a√2

Now, divide by b, we get

b=a ^2 /; or /; ab	 = 2

Here, a and b are integers so,

ab is a rational number,So ,√2 should be a rational number.

But √2is a irrational number, so it is contradictory.

Therefore,

→1/√2 is irrational number.
