by the method of contradiction
let us assume that √7 is rational number.
so,
√7 = a/b
b√7 = a
squaring on both sides.
we get
7b ² =a²
if 7 divides a then it also divides a²
so
a = 7c
squaring on both sides
a² = 49 c²
7b² = 49c²
b² = 7c²
here a b c have 7 as common factor
but √7 is irrational
this contradiction has arisen due to our incorrect assumption
this contradicts the fact that
√7 is irrational
