Answer:

Let root 3 + roof 5 be rational

root 3 + root 5 = P/q

(root 3 + root 5) sq=(P/q)sq

3 +5 + 2 root 15 = P sq/q Sq

root I5 = (Psq / qsq -7) 1/2

RHS is rational as all are integers

⇒ LHS is also rational but root 15 is irrational

⇒ root3 + root 5 is irrational

Answer:

Let √3 + √5 be a rational number , say r

then √3 + √5 = r

On squaring both sides,

(√3 + √5)2 = r2

3 + 2 √15 + 5 = r2

8 + 2 √15 = r2

2 √15 = r2 - 8

√15 = (r2 - 8) / 2

Now (r2 - 8) / 2 is a rational number and √15 is an irrational number .

Since a rational number cannot be equal to an irrational number . Our assumption that √3 + √5 is rational wrong .
