Is the square root of 2 a rational number


Asked by maham237 @ in Mathematics viewed by 292 People


Is the sum of 4.2 and the square root of 2 rational or irrational

Answered by maham237 @



The correct answer is:


Irrational.


Explanation:


We are adding a rational number, 4.2, and an irrational number, √2.


Adding an irrational number to anything makes the sum irrational.


The only way to get a rational number from an irrational number is to multiply or divide. There is no way to rationalize an irrational number by adding or subtracting.
