Answer:

Pythagoreans discovered that the diagonal of a square is incommensurable with its side, or in modern language, that the square root of two is irrational. Little is known with certainty about the time or circumstances of this discovery, but the name of Hippasus of Metapontum is often mentioned.

Answer:

Hippasus

Some scholars in the early 20th century credited Hippasus with the discovery of the irrationality of √2. Plato in his Theaetetus, describes how Theodorus of Cyrene (c. 400 BC) proved the irrationality of √3, √5, etc.
