We proov that √3 is irrational hense proov that 7+2√3 is also irrational
Answers
Answer:
Let root 3 be rational of the form p\q where p and q are co primes
root3 =p\q squaring on both side
3=p*2\q*2
3q*2=p*2-----------1
here p*2 is divided by 3 so as p divides 3
p=3a
p*2=9a*2 substituting in 1
3q*2=9a*2
q*2=3a*2
here even 3 divides q*2 and q
p and q has common factor 3
but this contradicts the fact that they are co prime
so our assumption is wrong
root 3 is irrational
let 7+2root3 be rational
7+2root 3=p\q
2 root3=p-7q\q
root3=p-7q\2q
this shows root 3 is rational but we know that it is irrational so 7+2root3 is irrational
PLZZZ MARK AS BRAINLIEST
Let 7+2√3 be a rational number.
Then,7+2√3=a/b,where a and b are Coprime integers and b is not= 0.
Therefore,2√3=a/b-7
√3=a/2b-7
Here,a/2b-7 is a rational number.
We know that,√3 is an irrational number.
Hence,our assumption is incorrect.
Therefore,7+2√3 is an irrational number.
Hence proved
