true since real numbers are either rational or irrational
OpenStudy (anonymous):
actually...if you extend definition to a complex number then it could be false
OpenStudy (anonymous):
since a real number can be complex
OpenStudy (shadowfiend):
A real number can be complex, but a complex number is not always real. Real numbers are a subset of complex numbers, so considering them here is incorrect.
OpenStudy (shadowfiend):
Or, rather, all real numbers *are* complex, but all complex numbers are not real.
