There is no representation for Irrational Numbers: they are represented as real numbers that are not rational. The set of real numbers is R and set of rational numbers is Q so that the set of irrational numbers is the complement if Q in R.

Is PI algebra?

PI is a number that is commonly used to help understand circles in algebra. We all know how it starts out. 3.14.... It is a real and irrational number. Pi is not only irrational. It's much worse. It is trancendental, meaning it is not a root of any polynomial with intefer coefficients. Trancendental numbers are important in algebra, but Pi is studied more in Analysis and Calculus

Any irrational number can be approximated by decimals. You can never write it exactly, since there are an infinite number of decimals, and these don't repeat.

Not completely to its end. If you can completely write a number with digits, then it's a rational number.


Why is 4.323223222 an irrational number if you can predict what comes next?

Being rational or irrational is not about "predicting the next digit"; the definition of a rational number is that you can write it as a fraction, with integer numerator and denominator.Being rational or irrational is not about "predicting the next digit"; the definition of a rational number is that you can write it as a fraction, with integer numerator and denominator.Being rational or irrational is not about "predicting the next digit"; the definition of a rational number is that you can write it as a fraction, with integer numerator and denominator.Being rational or irrational is not about "predicting the next digit"; the definition of a rational number is that you can write it as a fraction, with integer numerator and denominator.


Is the square root of 32 an irrational or a rational number?

The square root of a positive integer can ONLY be:* Either an integer, * Or an irrational number. (The proof of this is basically the same as the proof, in high school algebra books, that the square root of 2 is irrational.) Since in this case 32 is not the square of an integer, it therefore follows that its square root is an irrational number.


Is -11.7 an irrational number?

NO it is not irrational, that is to say it IS rational. If you can write a number as ratio of integers, it is rational. -11.7 can certainly be written as a ratio of integers.


Is the square root of a 143 a irrational number?

Yes. The square root of a positive integer can ONLY be either:* An integer (in this case, it isn't), OR * An irrational number. The proof is basically the same as the proof used in high school algebra, to prove that the square root of 2 is irrational.
