Let us assume is rational write it in form.

So, we can write this number as

6\sqrt{5} = \frac{a}{b}  ---- (1)

Here, a and b are two co-prime numbers and b is not equal to zero.

Simplify the equation (1) divide by 7 both sides, we get

\sqrt{5} = \frac{a}{6b}

Here, a and b are integers, so \frac{a}{6b} is a rational number, so \sqrt{5}​ should be a rational number.  

But,   is an irrational number, so it is contradictory.

Therefore, is an irrational number.
