Let us take
√2 is a rational no.
√2 =a/b( a and b are Coprime , b is not equal to 0)
then √2b=a
squaring on both sides
(√2b)2= a2
2b2=a2
2b2/a2 =0
here a2 is divisible by 2 also a is divisible by 2
take a = 2c
2b2=(2c)2
2b2= 4c2
here b2 is divisible by 2 also b is divisible by 2,a and b have a common factor 2
a and b are not Coprime
this contradiction rises due to our wrong supposition, that a and b are Coprime
therefore √2is irrational
in case if √3 , we can follow the same points by taking √2=√3
