It is believed that Irrational Numbers were known in ancient India but there was no formal proof of their existence as a separate class of numbers. The proof is sometimes attributed to the Greek philosopher, Hippasus (several centuries later, 5th Century BCE).
They are irrational numbers!
They are numbers that are infinite
An irrational number is a real number that cannot be expressed as a simple fraction, meaning it cannot be written as a ratio of two integers. These numbers have non-repeating, non-terminating decimal representations. Examples of irrational numbers include the square root of 2, pi, and the golden ratio. They are contrasted with rational numbers, which can be expressed as fractions.
yes * * * * * No. Rational and irrational numbers are two DISJOINT subsets of the real numbers. That is, no rational number is irrational and no irrational is rational.
properties of irrational numbers
No. Irrational numbers are real numbers, therefore it is not imaginary.

Not necessarily. The sum of two irrational numbers can be rational or irrational.
No, but the majority of real numbers are irrational. The set of real numbers is made up from the disjoint subsets of rational numbers and irrational numbers.
There are an infinite number of irrational numbers.
