Answer:2- root 3 is an irrational no.
Step-by-step explanation:
Solution:- let us consider that 2 - root 3 is a rational no.
According to definitions
p/q = 2 - root 3 ( p and q are integers where q not equals to 0, p and are co prime no.)
p/q - 2 = - root 3
Rational no. = Irrational no.
This can't be possible.
Therefore,
Our assumption was wrong that 2 - root 3 is a rational no.
Hence, 2 - root 3 is an Irrational no.
