Does there exist an irrational number such that its square root is rational?

No, and I can prove it: -- The product of two rational numbers is always a rational number. -- If the two numbers happen to be the same number, then it's the square root of their product. -- Remember ... the product of two rational numbers is always a rational number. -- So the square of a rational number is always a rational number. -- So the square root of an irrational number can't be a rational number (because its square would be rational etc.).


Rational numbers who square roots are whole numbers?

Every integer is a rational number, and some integers are perfect squares. These are the only rational numbers to have an integral square root.


Are all square roots rational numbers?

No, not all square roots are rational numbers. A rational number is a number that can be expressed as a fraction where the numerator and denominator are integers and the denominator is not zero. Square roots that are perfect squares, such as √4 or √9, are rational numbers because they can be expressed as whole numbers. However, square roots of non-perfect squares, such as √2 or √3, are irrational numbers because they cannot be expressed as a simple fraction.


Is the square root of 81 rational?

Yes. The square root of 81 is 9 - a natural number and all natural numbers are rational numbers.


Is the square root of 170 a rational number?

What is true of the discriminant when the two real number solutions to a quadratic equation are rational numbers?

The discriminant must be a perfect square or a square of a rational number.


What is the relationship of rational numbers and real number?

The set of rational numbers is a subset of the set of real numbers. That means that every rational number is a real number, but not every real number is rational. The square root of 2 is an example of a real number that isn't rational; that is, it can't be expressed as the quotient of two integers.


Is the square root of four a real number or a rational number or an irrational number or integers or a whole number?

The square root of four is a real number because it is a non-negative number that can be expressed on the number line. It is also a rational number because it can be expressed as the fraction 2/1. In fact, it is both a real number and a rational number, as all rational numbers are also real numbers.


Is the square root of 47 a rational number?

'47' is a prime number, so it does not have a rational square root. sqrt(47) = 6.8556546... to 9 d.p. An irrational number which cannot be converted to a quotient; that is made into a fraction. NB The square roots of prime numbers are irrational.


What is the rational number between square root of 29 and 45?

There are an infinite number of rational numbers between these two numbers, but the only positive integer between these numbers is 6.
