Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:let root 5 is a rational number
root 5 = a/b [b≠0 HCF=1]
sq. Both sides
5=a²/b²
a²=5b²
5 divides a²
5 divides a. (1).....
a=5c (c is integer)
Sq. Both sides
a²=25c²
from eq. 1
5b²=25c²
b²=5c²
5 divides b²
5 divides b
Then, 5 is common in both
This contradict our assumption
So, root 5 is an irrational number
