Question :
Which of the following is a rational number :
- 2+√3
- 5-√2
- 9-√2
- 6-√4
Answer :
Let's find the values of each option :
- 2+√3
➜ Value of √3 is approximately 1.732050807...
If we observe carefully the value of √3 has the numbers never ending and non repeating . These two are the properties of irrational numbers so 2+√3 will also be irrational .
- 5-√2
➜ The value of √2 is approximately 1.41421356....
Here as well the value of √2 is also never ending and non repeating so , we can I can conclude that √2 is irrational and when 5+√2 is also irrational .
- 9-√2
➜ As conclude above √2 is irrational and when 9-√2 is also irrational .
- 6-√4
➜ The value of √4 = 2
When we substitute 2 in place of √4 we get :
6 - 2 = 4
So the last option is correct being a rational number .
