Irrational Exuberance Posted By Michael Doliner On February 12 2020 Can someone prove that there exists x and y which are elements of the reals such that x and y are irrational but x y is rational? certainly, there are an infinite number of examples (pi 4 pi 4 for example) to show this, but how would you prove the general case?. So is an irrational number always irrational no matter what the base or is pi just a special case? the term "irrational" is independent of what base we use. so yes, an irrational number is always irrational.

Irrational Exuberance Assignment Point Irrational numbers are just an inconsistent fabrication of abstract mathematics. irrational lengths can't exist in the real world. and rational lengths can ? there is no way that you are going to construct a perfect circle or perfect triangle in the real universe. planck's constant and the heisenberg uncertainty principle will prevent it. Homework statement prove that log2 of 5 is irrational. homework equations none. the attempt at a solution i just had a glimpse of the actual solution. You just said that the product of two (distinct) irrationals is irrational. if you don't like pi, then sqrt (2) and 2sqrt (2) are two distinct irrationals involving only integers and whose product is rational. Does anyone know if it has ever been proved that pi divided e, added to e, or any other mathematical operation combining these two irrational numbers is rational. another thing does anybody know of any other irrational numbers that is not some derivative of pi and e.

How to prove that root n is irrational, if n is not a perfect square. also, if n is a perfect square then how does it affect the proof. Find a sequence of rational numbers that converges to the square root of 2. Homework statement show that the irrational numbers are dense in r. [hint: use the fact that sqrt(2) is irrational.]homework equations book already proved that the rationals are dense in r.the attempt at a solution my intuition is that i'm supposed to make some sort of argument that since the. But again, an irrational number plus a rational number is also irrational. therefore, there is always at least one rational number between any two rational numbers. however, the same proof can be applied to an infinite amount of subintervals within in, therefore there is an infinite amount of irrational numbers as well.
