Classify the following numbers as rational or irrational:
(i) 2 − √5 (ii) (3+ √23)− √23 (iii)2 √7/ 7 √7 (iv) 1/√2 (v) 2π
(i) 2− √5
In the given number 2 is rational number and √5 is irrational number. So, √5 is subtracted from 2. Now subtracting we will get an irrational number.
Hence, 2− √5 is an irrational number.
(ii) (3+ √23)− √23 = 3+ √23− √23 = 3 which is a rational number
(iii) 2√7/ 7√7 = 2/7 which is a rational number
(iv) 1/√2
is irrational number.
Because the quotient of a non-zero rational number with an irrational number is irrational.
(v) 2π
2 is rational number and π is an irrational number. So, we know that the product of a nonzero rational number with an irrational number is irrational.
Hence, 2π is irrational number.
