Given that √2 is irrational. Show that 5+√2 is irrational |
|
Answer» Answer: 5+root2 is ALSO IRRATIONAL NUMBER because irrational number is a number which cannot be written in the FORM of p/q and is non-terminating and non-repeating. so ROOT 2 is approximately 1.414....... and afer adding we get 6.414........ which is in decimal form and not in p/q form Hence, 5+root2 is also an irrational number..... or by the irrational number property rational+irrational= irrational Hope this helps you |
