Is pi + 1 rational or irrational

Sagot :

Answer:  Irrational

==========================================================

Explanation:

Let's assume that pi+1 is rational

If so, then pi+1 = m/n where m and n are integers and n is not zero.

Let's isolate pi

pi+1 = m/n

pi = (m/n) - 1

pi = (m/n) - (n/n)

pi = (m - n)/n

This says that pi is rational, as it's in the form integer/integer. But in reality, pi is irrational. The decimal form of pi goes on forever without any known pattern.

So going back to the assumption where we said "pi+1 is rational", that assumption can't be true. If it were true, then it leads to a contradiction. Therefore, pi+1 is irrational.
