Sol- let, √5 be rational no. Then, it is in the form of p/q where q not equals to zero and P and q are co-prime. √5=p/q On squaring both side- 5=p²/q² 5q²=p² ____eqation (1) Since, 5 divides p² Therefore, 5 divides p Again, Let, p=5c On squaring both side, P²=25c² 5q² =25c² from equation 1 q² =5c² Since, 5 divides q² Therefore, 5 divides q Since, 5 is the common factor . Therefore, this contradiction Therefore, √5 is an irrational no.
