Answer:
Since both q and r are odd, we can write q=2m−1 and r=2n−1 for some m,n∈N. ... Therefore there exists no rational number r such that r2=3. Hence the root of 3 is an irrational number.

Answer:
Let us assume the contrary that root 3 is rational. Then √3 = p/q, where p, q are the integers i.e., p, q ∈ Z and co-primes, i.e., GCD (p,q) = 1. Here 3 is the prime number that divides p2, then 3 divides p and thus 3 is a factor of p. ... Therefore, the root of 3 is irrational.
