pls answer!!!!!!!!​

Answer 1

Answer:

Hey dear here is your answer ^_^

Let us assume that 5 - root 3 is rational. Then it can be written in the form

5- root3 = p/q

or 5-p/q=root3

It implies root3 is a rational number [Since 5 - p/q are rationals]

But this contradicts to the fact that root 3 is irrational. Hence our supposition was wrong. Therefore 5-root 3 is irrational.

CHEERZ!
