write the properties of irrational number.
Answers
The properties of irrational number are:-
- Irrational number satisfy the commutative, associative, distributive laws of addition and multiplication.
- Quotient of two irrationals need not be am irrational.
- Product of two irrationals need not be an irrational.
Step-by-step explanation:
Properties of Irrational Numbers
Addition and Subtraction of Irrational numbers
1. The result of an addition of irrational numbers need not be an irrational number
(2 + √3) + (4 – √3) = 2 + √3 + 4 – √3 = 6. Here 6 is a rational number. So the result of adding two irrational numbers is not an irrational number.
2. The result of Subtraction of irrational number need not be an irrational number
(5+ √2 ) + (3 + √2) = 5+ √2 + 3 + √2 = 2. Here 2 is a rational number.
Multiplication and Division of Irrational numbers
1. The product of two irrational numbers can be rational or irrational number.
√2 × √3= 6. Here the result is a rational number.
2. The result of the division of two irrational numbers can be rational or irrational number.
√2 ÷ √3 =\( \frac{√2}{√3} \). Here the result is an irrational number.
