That simply isn't true. The sum of two Irrational Numbers CAN BE rational, but it can also be irrational. As an example, the square root of 2 plus the square root of 2 is irrational.

Why does a rational number plus an irrational number equal an irrational number?
from another wikianswers page: say that 'a' is rational, and that 'b' is irrational. assume that a + b equals a rational number, called c. so a + b = c subtract a from both sides. you get b = c - a. but c - a is a rational number subtracted from a rational number, which should equal another rational number. However, b is an irrational number in our equation, so our assumption that a + b equals a rational number must be wrong.
