The sum of a rational number and an irrational number is irrational. Always true, sometimes true, never true

Explanation:

We can prove this by contradiction.

Let's say

and

A+B = C

We'll show that a contradiction happens based on this.

If A is rational, then A = p/q where p,q are two integers. The q cannot be zero.

If C is rational, then C = r/s for some other integers. We can't have s be zero.

Note the following

A+B = C

B = C - A

B = r/s - p/q

B = qr/qs - ps/qs

B = (qr - ps)/qs

B = (some integer)/(some other integer)

This shows B is rational. But this is where the contradiction happens: We stated earlier that B was irrational. A number cannot be both rational and irrational at the same time. The very definition "irrational" literally means "not rational".

In short, I've shown that if A+B = C such that A,C are rational, then B must be rational as well.

The template is

rational + rational = rational

Therefore, we've shown that if A is rational and B is irrational, then C cannot possibly be rational. C is irrational.

Another template is

rational + irrational = irrational

because quadrilatural (idk how to spell it) means somthing that is not 3d or like, equal sides (or somthing like that   you know what i meanz)

hope this halps!

bai!
