A surd is the square root of an integer (whole number), e.g. square root of 2 is a surd. Pi is not the square root of an integer so not a surd, just an irrational number

Is square root of pi a surd?

Yes. A surd is any irrational number that can be expressed as the root of another number. As pi is a number, although it is a transcendental and hence irrational, the square root of pi is still an irrational number that can be expressed as the square root of another number.


Why all irrational numbers are not surd?

There are transcendental numbers such as pi, e, phi. The fact that they are transcendental means that they are not solutions of non-trivial algebraic polynomials with rational coefficients. There is, therefore, no surd form for such numbers.
