Step-by-step explanation:
Let us assume that 3+5√2 is rational and we can find integers a and b ,( b≠0) such that,
- 3+5√2= a/b
Also , a and b are co - primes
- 5√2 = a/b - 3
- √2 = a/5b - 3/5
since a and b are integers
We get , a/5b - 3/5 is rational and so, √2 is also rational.
But , the fact that √2 is irrational.
This contradiction has arisen incorrect assumption that 3+5√2 is rational.
Therefore, we conclude that 3+5√2 is irrational.
