Type your answer here...square root of two or pie ?
Probably the ancient Egyptians who discovered that the diagonal of a unit square was not a rational number. And then discovered other such numbers.
Pi is the value of a circle's circumference divided by its diameter and its true value has never been discovered because it is an irrational number
There is no first irrational number. Irrational numbers are infinitely dense which means that there are infinitely many of them in any interval. So if any number laid claim to being the first, there would be infinitely many that would be between 0 and that number. Each one of them would then have a better claim to be "first".
An irrational number.
Irrational numbers were known in India around 7th Century BCE but there existence as a different class of number but they had not proved their existence. That is sometimes attributed to Hippasus, a Greek philosopher of the Pythagorean school in the 5th Century BCE.

No. For example, 20.5 is irrational; indeed it was one of the first irrational numbers to be discovered.
No one has ever shown that 2 is an irrational number because it is rational.

NO this number is way far from irrational, first of all let's classify this number, it's an integer, whole number, rational, even a perfect square. This number has two numbers that are not irrational. one example is 11, 11 those numbers are rational so the product can't be irrational.
A negative irrational number can be thought of as an irrational number multiplied by -1, or an irrational number with a minus sign in front of it.
Yes, an irrational number divided by an irrational number will usually be an irrational number, but not always. For example, pi / (3pi) is 1/3, which is a rational number, but pi/e is an irrational number.
Johann Heinrich Lambert, however, Johann was Swiss, not French.
If you multiply an irrational number by ANY non-zero rational number, the result will be irrational.
Wrong. It is always an irrational number.
Next to any rational number is an irrational number, but next to an irrational number can be either a rational number or an irrational number, but it is infinitely more likely to be an irrational number (as between any two rational numbers are an infinity of irrational numbers).
