Is the square root of 41 irrational?
Yes in fact the root of all prime numbers is irrational.
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 the square root of 97 rational or irrational?
The square root of 97 is an irrational number. This is because the square root of 97 cannot be expressed as a fraction of two integers. In other words, the decimal representation of the square root of 97 goes on forever without repeating, making it an irrational number.
Are there irrational numbers that are not real numbers?
An imaginary number i is defined as the square root of -1, so if you have something like the square root of -2, the answer would be i root 2, and that would be considered an irrational non-real number.* * * * *Not quite. The fact that irrational coefficients can be used, in conjunction with i to create complex numbers (or parts of complex numbers) does not alter the fact that all irrational numbers are real numbers.
Is the square root of 19 a rational number?
