I'm not sure whether u r asking what it means that pi is not rational (irrational is the word 4 that) or how 2 prove it. The 1st of those is much easier 2 answer. It means that there r no 2 integers (whole numbers) that u can divide, 1 by the other, 2 get a fraction that is exactly equal 2 pi.
It turns out that pi is not only irrational, but transcendental, which means it is not the root of any polynomial equation with rational coefficients. While the ancient Greeks knew about pi, and its approximate value, the irrationality of it was not proved until 1761, and its transcendence until 1882
What else can I help you with?
Is pi irrational rational complex or an integer?
pi is real, irrational and transcendent; it is not rational, complex, nor an integer.Yes, it is non-terminating and non-repeating.Yes, pie is an irrational number.
What are some examples of a fraction but not a rational number?
A rational number is a fraction with an integer in the numerator, and a non-zero integer in the denominator. If you consider pi/2, pi/3, pi/4 (common 'fractions' of pi used in trigonometry) to be 'fractions', then these are not rational numbers.
Why is 10 pi irrational?
A non-zero rational number (10) multiplied by an irrational number (pi) is always irrational.
Is 0.16 pie a rational number?
(pi) itself is an irrational number. The only multiples of it that can be rational are (pi) x (a rational number/pi) .
Is 3.14 a rational or irrational number?
3.14 is a rational number pi is not. pi is not 3.14
Is a non-terminating decimal always sometimes or never a rational number?
Sometimes. (pi) is non-terminating and irrational. 0.33333... non-terminating is 1/3 , which is rational.
Why is pi a rational number?
Pi is irrational.
Why the area of a circle with a rational radius must be an irrational number?
It the radius is r then the area is pi*r*r - which is pi times a rational number. pi is an irrational number, so the multiple of pi and a rational number is irrational.
Is the symbol pi rational?
No, the symbol pi (π) is not a rational number. It is an irrational number, which means it cannot be expressed as a fraction of two integers. Its decimal representation is non-repeating and non-terminating, approximately equal to 3.14159. This has been proven mathematically, confirming that pi cannot be written as a simple ratio.
Is -2.2 rational?
No 22*pi is not a rational number
What irrational number can be added to pi to get a sum that is rational?
Minus pi. Or minus pi plus any rational number. Here is how you can figure this out (call your unknown number "x", and let "r" stand for any rational number):x + pi = r To solve for "x", simply subtract pi from both sides. That gives you: x = r - pi
Is pi 12 equal to a rational number?
Any multiple of or addition to or subtraction from PI is an irrational number. PI divided by PI is 1, a rational number. So is PI times 0 = 0
