again , pissed off , not getting what is the problem trying to say
what is alpha and beta ? rational or irrational wtf
@ikram002p
there is a typo in the question, it should say \(\large \beta \ne 0\)
alpha is rational and beta is irrational
actually^^
how ikram
a rational number is a number that can be expressed as the ratio of integers. an irrational number is a number that cannot be expressed as the ratio of integers.
ganesh both should not equal zero since if alpha =0 then alpha. beta =0 rational 0/beta =0 rational
actually alpha also should not be =0
agree
no, \(\alpha \ne 0\) is correct. 0 is rational, not irrational
how ever prove by contradiction assume a/b = h/d ( rational ) ad=hb b=ad/h (contradiction ) same ith product
Actually i didn't get what the problem says
lol no mood for typing xD
given : "a" is a non zero rational number, and b is an irrational number. to prove : ab and a/b are irrational
notice that b also cannot be 0
makes sense
yes otherwise the fraction ..............
b already cant be 0 , cuz of the given it irrational hehe i dint note that
so u know how to prove nw ha ?
i need a new brain :o
lol no ikram
ermm wanna switch xD
i 'm solving a new book online free o cost incase anyone wants to try http://iitjeelibrary.blogspot.in/
okay back to the problem
why a is rational ?
it is given
sry yes
ok in short u are given that a is non zero rational and b is irrational first wanna prove a.b is also irrational prove by contradiction let a.b rational then a.b=c/d b=c/da which is a contradiction since b is given to be irrational
got it now ?
coooool!
ok , same idea with a/b
how
prove by contradiction let a/b be rational then a/b=c/d then b=ad/c contradiction
sorry yes
