SELECT * FROM question_mgmt as q WHERE id=5176 AND status=1 SELECT id,question_no,question,chapter FROM question_mgmt as q WHERE courseId=9 AND subId=6 AND chapterId=268 and ex_no='3' AND status=1 ORDER BY CAST(question_no AS UNSIGNED)
Prove that the following are irrationals:
(i) Let us assume 1/√2 is a rational number.
1/√2 = p/q , where q ≠ 0 and p and q are co primes.
On reciprocal,
√2 = qp ................(1)
Since, q and p are integers and q/p is also a rational number
As we know √2 is an irrational number.
From (1)
√2 ≠ q/p
Thus our assumption is wrong 1/√2 is not a rational number.
Hence, proved
(ii) Let us suppose 7√5 is a rational number.
7√5 = p/q, where p and q are co primes and q ≠ 0
On solving , √5 = (p/q)7 .....................(1)
Since p, q and 7 integers and (p/q)7 is also a rational number.
And we know √5 is an irrational number.
From (1)
√5 ≠ (p/q) / 7
So our supposition Is wrong 7√5 is not a rational number.
Hence, proved.
(iii) Let us suppose 6 + √2 is a rational number.
6 + √2 = a/b, where a, b are co primes and b ≠ 0.
On solving,
√2 = a/b - 6 .....................(1)
Since a, b and 6 are integers and a/b - 6 is also a rational number.
And we know that √2 is an irrational number.
From (1)
√2 ≠ a/b - 6
Thus our Superposition is wrong 6√2 is not a rational number.
Hence, proved.
