77 is not a perfect square.

Another way to look at it is this (use a calculator)

sqrt(77) ~= 8.774964387

Notice how there is no point where the numbers begin to repeat themselves (e.g., 1.222322232223)

Both reasons tell us that sqrt(77) is an irrational number.

Yes - the square roots of all non-perfect square integers (ie the numbers which are 1², 2², 3², ...) are irrational.
