Step-by-step explanation:
let us assume that 2√2 is rational
let 2√2= a/b (a and b are coprimes having common factor 1)
send 2 to rhs
√2= a/b-2
√2= a-2b/b
since a-2b /b is rational √2 is also rational
but this contradicts the fact that√2 is irrational.
hence this contradiction has arisen because of our wrong assumption that 2√2 is rational.
THEREFORE,2√2 IS irrational
hence proved.
