Sagot :

the correct answer is C.

Step-by-step explanation:

π is an irrational number

Reason:-

π is defined as the ratio of the circumference of a circle to the diameter of the circle

⇛π = C/d

The diameter and the Circumference of a circle are incommensurable.i.e.there does not exist a common unit to measure that allows us to measure the both. If you measure accurately then atleast either C and d is irrational. So π is regarded as Irrational number.

The decimal expansion of π is non terminating and non recurring decimal.

22/7 is a rational number

Reason:-

22/7 = 3.142857142857...

It is a non terminating and recurring decimal

it is a rational number.

We know that

The decimal form of a rational number is either terminating or non terminating and recurring decimal.

The value of π is closely nearer to 22/7

π= 3.1415...

π≠22/7

We often take 22/7 as an approximate value of π

Answer: From the above given options option (c) {π is irrational and 22/7 is rational} is your correct statement.
